test simply tests the local arena performance making it the worst case for serial allocators as all threads contend for the same lock. At the same time this is the best case scenario for jemalloc as all memory resides in the local arena. This means no contention at all unless the threads get hashed into the same arena. Basicly you are comparing worst case of phkmalloc vs best case of jemalloc. =) Would be nice if someone could run some supersmack benchmarks. >Kris > >P.S.
