Yeah, I know. However the two patches deal with the same part of the
code, so it feels natural to work on both at the same time. And I
already had a solution in my head, and "only" needed to code it.
Also, I think the question of allocated memory / memory pressure is
important, and I'd like to avoid "this will be solved by the other
patch" only to find out that the other patch does not work.
