Qi Wang 94a88c26f4 Implement huge arena: opt.huge_threshold.
The feature allows using a dedicated arena for huge allocations.  We want the
addtional arena to separate huge allocation because: 1) mixing small extents
with huge ones causes fragmentation over the long run (this feature reduces VM
size significantly); 2) with many arenas, huge extents rarely get reused across
threads; and 3) huge allocations happen way less frequently, therefore no
concerns for lock contention.

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes
fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support.  jemalloc first came
into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its
way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior.  In 2010
jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features
such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks.  Modern jemalloc
releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility
remains critical.  Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc
among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and
eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real
world applications.
