[perl #9319] Perl bug -- split function

Staring at the data I generated. I'm jaw dropped. Its not that windows
doesn't leave just in case space. It moves the data back and forth
continuously between the same couple blocks. I am not an expert on
disassembly/REing of windows, but I really dont know what to do or say
at how bad the windows heap algorithm is. I dont think that this problem
(copying every page like clock work between the same 2 VM blocks) can be
solved on P5P. I haven't tried this realloc test with a stand alone C
app. I dont know if my data has anything to do with my perl being a
DEBUGGING and the -Od compiler flag some how changing the behavior of
the windows malloc system (google "debug heap") through the PE header.
