Unless you are doing a cold compile, the main bottlenecks in the

I wonder if zeroing memory blocks (so when allocating them we know
already that they contain zeros) and preparing new register allocators
in a helper thread could improve this.
But if a memory block is freed and put back on the heap,
you need to zero it again, so where is the gain in that ?
