Comment(by kurahaupo):

 I've found the key problem: , which will need a patch of about 20-30
 lines. (An entire loop needs to be re-done).

 Or I can include the entire work-over and refactoring I've given it while
 I've been trying to figure out how exactly it works.

 That would include:
  * fix the round-up-to-power-of-two logic so it doesn't leave unnecessary
 empty space
  * unify handling of several different chunk types (therefore fewer tests
 & code paths)
  * make chunk grouping work with any size chunks, not just power-of-two
  * separate the handling of "sparsity" and "grouping" (there would still
 be some interaction in the allocation policy)
  * reorder functions to make inlining available

 Any preferences for the "short" patch or the "full" patch?
