All you need to do is set the appropriate type's tp_alloc/tp_dealloc function pointers [1] (type-specific malloc/free functions). Dropbox was having fragmentation issues from the large amount of garbage generated while scanning the filesystem, and making memory allocation use type-specific memory pools fixed it.
