        // The reason for the existence of this class is to allocate
        // memory directly using mmap() so we don't create calls to
        // malloc() and friends.  This is for two reasons: it must be
        // possible to use this in asynchronous signal handlers, and
        // calling malloc() in those is a really bad idea; and this is
        // meant to be used by profiling code and it's nicer to not
        // allocate memory in ways tracked by the profiler.
