On Emacs trunk, I recently got into a situation where Emacs had a vsize
of over 6GB. After killing all buffers, garbage-collect reported (heap
1024 82721 1933216) as the most interesting part of its on its return
value. dlmalloc's free memory retention seems a bit severe here. Are we
just badly fragmenting the heap?
Buffers are not allocated off the heap, as you well know.
No, but their buffer locals might be.
