Title: Benchmarking memory allocators at BlackAlps 2022
Date: 2023-05-17 15:15

Last year, I gave a lighting talk at work's internal "Performances
summit" about my adventures in benchmarking memory allocators, mostly from a
performance point of view. It was then augmented with a small security benchmark
component, and extended into a full talk given at
[BlackAlps](https://www.blackalps.ch/ba-22/talks.php#03), the 15<sup>th</sup>
of November 2022. The video just got published:
