           Summary: Review Request: openbsd-malloc - Alternative malloc()
                    implementation
           Product: Fedora Extras
           Version: devel
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: medium
         Component: Package Review
        AssignedTo: nobody at fedoraproject.org
        ReportedBy: lemenkov at gmail.com
         QAContact: fedora-package-review at redhat.com


Spec URL: http://lemenkov.googlepages.com/openbsd-malloc.spec
SRPM URL: http://lemenkov.googlepages.com/openbsd-malloc-0-1.src.rpm

Description: This package contains experimental alternative to glibc
implementation of malloc() which is prone to heap fragmentation
due to use of deprecated brk() syscall; one might find it useful
to reduce e.g. Firefox memory consumption (though reportedly
won't work with e.g. Emacs).

Use openbsd-malloc some-program to run some-program this way.
