[issue26249] Change PyMem_Malloc to use PyObject_Malloc allocator?

[Catalin Gabriel Manciu]

Catalin Gabriel Manciu added the comment:

I've just posted the results to an OpenStack Swift benchmark run using the patch from my proposition, issue #26382. 
Victor's patch, applied to CPython 2.7, adds an extra 1% compared to mine (which improved throughput by 1%), effectively doubling the performance gain. Swift is a highly complex real-world workload, so this result is quite significant.
