Sounds like it could be a special case. Were you only doing processing
on memory in that zone (during your testing), or did you have to go out
of that zone to get other memory? Was the improvement mostly due to the
nature of the free() or was there computational improvement? The nature
of our apps are that all the memory was segmented into different zones
and cross referenced each other and the interactions were complex.
You could use this approach any time you want to destroy an entire
category of blocks of memory and there were no pointers to those blocks
of memory from outside of that category.
Certainly, if you have a very complex set of pointer crossings you
either need to repartition your data or just not use zones at all.
