+\item Evan Jones's patch to obmalloc, first described in a talk
+at PyCon DC 2005, was applied.  Python 2.4 allocated small objects in
+256K-sized arenas, but never freed arenas.  With this patch, Python
+will free arenas when they're empty.  The net effect is that on some
+platforms, when you allocate many objects, Python's memory usage may
+actually drop when you delete them and the memory may be returned to
+the operating system.  (Implemented by Evan Jones, and reworked by Tim
+Peters.)
+
+Note that this change means extension modules must be more careful
+when allocating memory.  Python's API has many different
+functions for allocating memory that are grouped into families.  For
+example, \cfunction{PyMem_Malloc()}, \cfunction{PyMem_Realloc()}, and
+\cfunction{PyMem_Free()} are one family that allocates raw memory,
+while \cfunction{PyObject_Malloc()}, \cfunction{PyObject_Realloc()},
+and \cfunction{PyObject_Free()} are another family that's supposed to
+be used for creating Python objects.  
+
+Previously these different families all reduced to the platform's
+\cfunction{malloc()} and \cfunction{free()} functions.  This meant 
+it didn't matter if you got things wrong and allocated memory with the
+\cfunction{PyMem} function but freed it with the \cfunction{PyObject}

+things and mismatches will probably result in a segfault.  You should
+carefully test your C extension modules with Python 2.5.
