The worst case is probably a gc-like usage where one thread does all allocation and another all deallocation, as this will cause all blocks to cross the thread cache via an atomic pointer CAS and eventually cause larger spans of blocks to traverse the thread caches via the global cache. However, even this scenario will probably be significantly faster than the standard runtime allocator.

It does seem that @aganea has tried it on more service facing hardware, perhaps he can give additional input.


Okay, thanks.
