you to get some useful performance data. The inner Valgrind has most of
its output (ie. those lines beginning with "==<pid>==") prefixed with a
'>', which helps a lot.
At the time of writing the allocator is not annotated with client requests
so Memcheck is not as useful as it could be. It also has not been tested
much, so don't be surprised if you hit problems.
