I am trying to compare several versions of malloc, realloc and free.
In order to do this I would like to have results for real programs
that work rather than random sequences of calls to these routines.

I have written a library which can be loaded with your program to
generate a data file which I can use to compare each of the
versions of malloc, realloc, and free that I have.  If you have
a program that relies heavily on malloc, realloc, and free,
and would like to help me in this investigation please let me
know and I will send you the library you need.  I need to know
the what computer you are using and what version of the UNIX
operating system.

Also, if you have a version of malloc, realloc, and free, which
you believe is better than the standard one and would like it
tested please send it to me.
