I thought of that after I hit send.  You're 100% correct.  So let me
revise what I said to "the performance hit is significantly exaggerated on
platforms without MMAP, but MMAP alone doesn't get rid of all the
problems."

At any rate, the summary still stands: it's malloc and free that are
killing us.
