No, because the worker thread looks into the global structure when it

This kind of garbage control might add some overhead at unforeseen times.
And you will get overhead in the FASTMM scheme if you have two threads
that are concurrently allocating and/or freeing a lot of small or
medium blocks.
I seem to like the FASTMM paradigm better.
Both have their strong and weak points. Note that FPC's memory manager
also keeps separate freelists for small blocks (but per thread).
