The right way to test it would be to collect data in kernel about alloc/free, and then run that data against both versions, and check which version gives less internal fragmentation.

* An implementation of the Slab Allocator as described in outline in; * UNIX Internals: The New Frontiers by Uresh Vahalia * Pub: Prentice Hall ISBN 0-13-101908-2 * or with a little more detail in; * The Slab Allocator: An Object-Caching Kernel Memory Allocator * Jeff Bonwick (Sun Microsystems). * Presented at: USENIX Summer 1994 Technical Conference
