/* Fast zone memory allocator with deallocation support, for use as obstack
   or as general purpose allocator.  It does no compaction.  If the usage
   pattern is non-optimal it might waste some memory while running.  E.g.
   allocating many small things at once, and then deallocating only every
   second one, there is a high chance, that actually no memory is freed.
