Multiplication being commutative, I see zero effect in this patch?
Weeeeell, not in every algebraic system. It has zero effect, it's only about correctness [1]. Will applying this break anything?
In which way is "a * b" more (or less?) correct than "b * a" ?
In our natural integer system, it's all perfectly OK.
What is the difference between allocating a contiguous sequence of 4096 single bytes, or allocating a single block of size 4096?
None.
Best regards,
