Seems like DRI/mesa should just use malloc/free for objects which aren't related to the X server internals. I've given up building custom allocators these days; the libc ones are almost always better designed for 'unusual' events (cf the XFree86 4.0 custom allocator which produced some spectactular results for large region computations). -keith
