#### Fallback Allocator
Given that large allocations (>2KB) are often rare, especially in operating system kernels, it might make sense to fall back to a different allocator for these allocations. For example, we could fall back to a linked list allocator for allocations greater than 2048 bytes in order to reduce memory waste. Since only very few allocations of that size are expected, the the linked list would stay small so that (de)allocations would be still reasonably fast.
