+The maximum "tail waste" for each block is equal to maximum object
+size minus alignment.  E.g. a 512-byte block can waste at most 24
+bytes due to the next 32-byte object not fitting.

+That waste calculation is not taking into account the waste from the
+alignment padding, but that'll be relatively small as well if you do
+the calculations, I'm pretty sure.  In any case, no worse than other
+general-purpose allocators, I'm pretty sure.
