      There are known issues with memory fragmentation in the MongoDB 3.2 release when running certain workloads (tracked in SERVER-20306).

      One way we may be able to reduce the amount of fragmentation would be to use separate allocator pools for different allocations. Especially within WiredTiger, where there is some knowledge about the expected lifespan of different allocations.
