Deprecated and scheduled for removal in a few cycles. SLUB recommended as replacement. SLUB_TINY can be considered on systems with 16MB or less RAM.

SLOB replaces the stock allocator with a drastically simpler allocator. SLOB is generally more space efficient but does not perform as well on large systems.
