I'll search for it. I note that nedmalloc does well, there's
a new ptmalloc, and the latest nedmalloc seems to be based on
a new DLMalloc that I think's not public yet. And the google
malloc seems to work pretty well, though I've not looked closely
at it since its *Nix only and I favour things that will work
on WIn32 too. Thanks for the pointer though.
Here's a couple links.

I had the pleasure of attending Jason's talk at BSDCan and it was quite
impressive.
