What about Safari and Chrome using tcmalloc instead of the default allocator?
Here's a thread from the Chromium mailing list:
http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev/browse_thread/thread/60f5b665c9c536c6/d1f8e73fc7c33b4b?lnk=gst&q=tcmalloc#d1f8e73fc7c33b4b
"From a performance perspective, it may be critical to use tcmalloc to match
safari performance."
