oversize. Allocation requests with greater sizes are fulfilled from a
dedicated arena (automatically managed, however not within
<literal>narenas</literal>), in order to reduce fragmentation by not
mixing huge allocations with small ones. In addition, the reserved
special arena may have its own default decay settings. Note that
requests with arena index specified via
mixing huge allocations with small ones. In addition, the decay API
guarantees on the extents greater than the specified threshold may be
overridden. Note that requests with arena index specified via
<constant>MALLOCX_ARENA</constant>, or threads associated with explicit
arenas will not be considered. The default threshold is 8MiB. Values
not within large size classes disables this feature.</para></listitem>
