             Summary: [C++] Upgrade jemalloc to version 5
                 Key: ARROW-3243
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3243
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Philipp Moritz


Is it possible/feasible to upgrade jemalloc to version 5 and assume that 
version? I'm asking because I've been working towards replacing dlmalloc in 
plasma with jemalloc, which makes some of the code much nicer and removes some 
of the issues we had with dlmalloc, but it requires jemalloc APIs that are only 
available starting from jemalloc version 5, in particular, I'm using the 
extent_hooks_t capability.

For now I can submit a patch that uses a different version of jemalloc in 
plasma and then we can figure out how to deal with it (maybe there is a way to 
make it work with older versions). What are your thoughts?
