Probably not the ideal pick for an everuone facing library like this, tcmalloc focuses on reducing core thread contention, at the cost of compactness and often debugability. I've not been following the ptoject for some time though, so maybe things have changed. Still a great allocator if those tradoffs are what you want. Something more like mimalloc would probably be a better general purpose allocator for something like this
