This was reported earlier too, but I couldn't reproduce it:
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=18079 (especially comment 47405
by Sergei).
I suggest to use cmem and compare the results.
I will also note that malloc uses mremap
None of that would explain the differences experienced in the referred
bug report, because we don't use mremap-like functionality on any
platform at this time. The issue there appears to be a corner case that
makes the heap manager reformat/free/reallocate its internal heap blocks
all the time on some systems, while on other systems it won't do that
even though it's presented with exactly the same memory
allocation/reallocation pattern.
This behavior apparently depends on all memory serviced by memory manager, including blocks
allocated (and maybe also freed) during RTL initialization. That's why it differs between targets,
and that's why the issue 18079 was no longer reproducible after time. Most probably some (unrelated)
change was made to RTL initialization code, which also changes the pattern in user code that is
required to reproduce issue.

Sergei
