Re Autotuning: SLUB obj per page:
	SLUB can combine pages of different orders in a slab cache so this would
	be possible.

per CPU freelist per page:
	Could we drop the per cpu partial lists if this works?

Clearing memory:
	Could exploit the fact that the page is zero on alloc and also zap
	when no object in the page is in use?
