/* This is a stress test for the allocator, using multiple threads and
   transferring objects between threads. It tries to reflect real-world workloads:
   - allocation size is distributed linearly in powers of two
   - with some fraction extra large (and some extra extra large)
   - the allocations are initialized and read again at free
   - pointers transfer between threads
   - threads are terminated and recreated with some objects surviving in between
   - uses deterministic "randomness", but execution can still depend on
     (random) thread scheduling. Do not use this test as a benchmark!
