In some cases, even longer history of alloc/free would be nice :) > We think it only has free stack to find out the root cause.

Our feature option has this description about last stack of page. when consumer enable our feature, they should know the changing. 2. We add to print text message for alloc or free stack before dump the stack of page. so consumers should know what is it. > All that just doesn't seem to justify saving an u32 per page. Actually, We want to slim memory usage instead of increasing the memory usage at another mail discussion. Maybe, maintainer or reviewer can provide some ideas. That will be great. > > > > >
