🎯 Detailed Results

Scenario: json (Small, 64KB typical)

Rank | Allocator          | Median (ns) | Stdev  | vs mimalloc
-----|--------------------+-------------+--------+-------------
  1  | system             |     268     | ±  143 |   -9.4%
  2  | mimalloc           |     296     | ±   33 |  baseline
  3  | hakmem-evolving    |     298     | ±   13 |   +0.3% ⭐
  4  | hakmem-baseline    |     306     | ±   25 |   +3.2%
  5  | jemalloc           |     472     | ±   45 |  +59.0%

Phase 6.10.1 効果: hakmem-evolving が mimalloc とほぼ互角（+0.3%）！

L2 Pool (2-32KB) 最適化が効果的:

1. memset削除 → 50-400 ns削減
2. branchless LUT → 2-5 ns削減
3. non-empty bitmap → 5-10 ns削減
4. Site Rules MVP → O(1) direct routing

Scenario: mir (Medium, 256KB typical)

Rank | Allocator          | Median (ns) | Stdev  | vs mimalloc
-----|--------------------+-------------+--------+-------------
  1  | mimalloc           |    1148     | ±  267 |  baseline
  2  | jemalloc           |    1383     | ±  241 |  +20.4%
  3  | hakmem-evolving    |    1698     | ±   83 |  +47.8%
  4  | system             |    1720     | ±  228 |  +49.7%
  5  | hakmem-baseline    |    1817     | ±  144 |  +58.2%

課題: Medium Pool (32KB-1MB) 最適化が必要

Scenario: vm (Large, 2MB typical)

Rank | Allocator          | Median (ns) | Stdev  | vs mimalloc
-----|--------------------+-------------+--------+-------------
  1  | mimalloc           |   17017     | ± 1084 |  baseline
  2  | jemalloc           |   24990     | ± 3144 |  +46.9%
  3  | hakmem-baseline    |   40780     | ± 5884 | +139.6%
  4  | hakmem-evolving    |   41312     | ± 6345 | +142.8%
  5  | system             |   59186     | ±15666 | +247.8%

課題: Large allocation (≥1MB) のオーバーヘッドが大きい
