The slab slot count for each size class is not yet finely tuned beyond choosing values avoiding
internal fragmentation for slabs (i.e. avoiding wasted space due to page size rounding).
The choice of size classes is the same as jemalloc:
The choice of size classes is the same as jemalloc, but with a much different approach to the
slabs containing them:
> size classes are multiples of the quantum [16], spaced such that there are four size classes for
