Once one of the SLRU buffers is full, it cannot currently allocate from
another SLRU buffer's unused memory area. That memory there is plain
wasted at that moment. That's my point and the problem the allocator I
posted tries to solve.
I fail to see how malloc could help here. malloc() only allocates
process-local memory.
