But: mmap (or VirtualAlloc on Windows) return memory blocks with a size

somewhat wasteful to use a 4k block when only 20 or 30 bytes are really
needed. So, it seems a very simple memory manager is needed. Since the
block size is always the same, it probably wouldn't be too complicated
to hack one, but isn't there a library I can reuse?

Can't you use Python's pool memory manager?
