I assume the "particular web browser" is Chromium, which won't load it on any OS I've tried. On Windows, Firefox and the built-in curl.exe also refuse to connect.

Not a good article, IMO.
FTA: “When multiple threads simultaneously allocate or deallocate memory from the allocator, the allocator will serialize them. Programs making intensive use of the allocator actually slow down as the number of processors increases.”
The article does later retract on that, but that’s no reason to lead with such a blatantly false (with current allocators) statement.
Also FTA “In 2006, a third pool was introduced (after operating system memory pool and library-based memory pool) called the “arena”. Arena is a jemalloc-term”

Jemalloc is from around 2005 (http://jemalloc.net/), the idea of arenas is from the 1960s, and Wikipedia claims the term was coined in 1990 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Region-based_memory_management...), and the linked paper (https://www.cs.princeton.edu/techreports/1988/191.pdf) is from 1988.
Then, a typo: “as well as memory tied to specific to each of the multiple CPU core or even CPU infinity.”
“Infinity” should be “affinity” there.
