In case I haven't made myself clear enough:

 - Patterns of behavior DOES exist in ALL programs (well, almost all).
 - Good allocators exploit these patterns.
 - A "fair" test would be one, which exhibits the same patterns of
   behavior as the real programs.
 - This is no cheating from the allocators' side.

OK ?
