The windows heap is much more prudent than UNIXy counterparts it would seem - where UNIX heaps will happily leave plenty of free space (which the heaps know about and thus can re-use), Windows appears to avoid that like the plague (which I'm sure is the case for lots of historical reasons and backwards compatibility). [ To give a very rough analogy, the map of used space in a heap on windows is like a block of cheddar; whereas on UNIXy systems it will be like a block of edam ].
