Hm, I don't see any obvious reason.

I don't think there's much significant difference. Could be a limitation
of the benchmark. But even if there's no difference, it means the reduction
of fragmenting events at least saves time on allocations.
But you'll see that for the long-term fragmentation damage, we still have
long way to go...

Yup, those success rates suck. Wonder why. Could it be that there's still
long-term pollution by unmovable allocations? That wouldn't show on pagetypeinfo.
