All applications but the ones that allocate a only few memory blocks

benefit from this change, not just apps allocating hundreds of megabytes at the
same time (it also helps in case applications maximally use 10MB, but allocate
and free a lot of data so the blocks get released back to the OS). Applications
allocating a ton of them would obviously benefit more than others.
So why 256kb? not 64, 128, or 512kb?
Specific apps can change the size according to their expected pattern,
the default should be conservative.
