25 * Simple slab allocator for equally sized memory allocations.
26 * util_slab_alloc and util_slab_free have time complexity in O(1).
28 * Good for allocations which have very low lifetime and are allocated
29 * and freed very often. Use a profiler first to know if it's worth using it!
31 * Candidates: get_transfer, user_buffer_create
