Hi Daniel. Further posts from you will require moderator approval.

Personally I'm baffled what made you so upset. From what I can tell
Tom didn't even claim harden_malloc is a bad project, just that
benchmarks should be redone with Firefox's jemalloc forking in mind
and that he doesn't expect benefits from integrating it via LD_PRELOAD
for our use case (though to be honest this thread got too wonky for me
- not my specialty).

Regardless, contentious technical discussions on this list are fine
but personal attacks are not.
