Dmitry Ilvokhin aaa29003ab Limit maximum number of purged slabs with option
Option `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` introduced for backward
compatibility reasons: to make it possible to have behaviour similar
to buggy `hpa_strict_min_purge_interval` implementation.

When `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` is set to -1, there is no limit
to number of slabs we'll purge on each iteration. Otherwise, we'll purge
no more than `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` hugepages (slabs). This in
turn means we might not purge enough dirty pages to satisfy
`hpa_dirty_mult` requirement.

Combination of `hpa_dirty_mult`, `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` and
`hpa_strict_min_purge_interval` options allows us to have steady rate of
pages returned back to the system. This provides a strickier latency
guarantees as number of `madvise` calls is bounded (and hence number of
TLB shootdowns is limited) in exchange to weaker memory usage
guarantees.

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes
fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support.  jemalloc first came
into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its
way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior.  In 2010
jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features
such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks.  Modern jemalloc
releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility
remains critical.  Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc
among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and
eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real
world applications.

The COPYING file contains copyright and licensing information.

The INSTALL file contains information on how to configure, build, and install
jemalloc.

The ChangeLog file contains a brief summary of changes for each release.
