Anyone here has tested/benchmarked Squid linked against Google's tcmalloc library?

TCmalloc's details at http://goog-perftools.sourceforge.net/doc/tcmalloc.html

  Henrik, any comment?

I don't expect it to make any difference. The memory pools of Squid very effectively takes most of the heat away from malloc.

Please note that the memory pools is not for performance reasons, but to keep memory fragmentation at bay and also to provide some meaningful statistics about memory usage within Squid.
