Not sure if this is your problem, but most malloc implementations are
not thread safe.  Try putting your old malloc back with a lock around
it and see if that improves it.

I did make several changes to the malloc I found on the net.
In the init fuction I created an mm_semaphore with sem_init.
In both the malloc and the free functions I sandwiched
the code between a sem_wait and sem_post call.  This still
had problems.

I'm still looking for a small and simple malloc routine.
Any pointers appreciated.  I looked at the one that comes
with linux but decided it was way to complex for my needs.
