... or maybe this week:

ver0 | 18,055,719,820 (-----------) | Base version 
96f0585268f1cc4e820767c4038c10ed4915c12a
ver1 | 18,185,185,838 (0.6% slower) | Change tvb allocator g_slice_* to wmem 
with file scope
ver2 | 17,809,433,204 (1.4% faster) | Change tvb allocator g_slice_* to wmem 
with file/packet scope
ver3 | 17,812,128,887 (1.3% faster) | Change tvb allocator g_slice_* to simple 
object allocator with epan scope
ver4 | 17,704,132,561 (2.0% faster) | Change tvb allocator g_slice_* to simple 
object allocator with file scope

I have uploaded patches & profiler outputs to: 
http://www.wireshark.org/~darkjames/tvb-opt-allocator/

Please review, and check what version is OK to be applied.


P.S: I'll might find some time to do ver5 with slab allocator, but it'll look 
like object allocator API with epan scope.

Cheers,
Jakub.
