Comment (by vbraun):
And you need to run at least as many iterations such that a leak would
have to fill up the current process space. Which is IMHO way too slow for
a doctest. A good enough heuristic is to hope that at least one of the
tested OSes has a malloc pool granularity that is small enough (less than
16 * 10000)
