+// MallocedBlockCache implements a lightweight wrapper around js_malloc/js_free.
+//
+// Blocks are requested by ::alloc and must be returned with ::free, at which
+// point the cache may decide to hold on to the block rather than hand it back
+// to js_free. Subsequent ::alloc calls may be satisfied from the cached
+// blocks rather than calling js_malloc. The mechanism is designed to be much
+// cheaper than calling js_malloc/js_free directly. One consequence is that
+// there is no locking; it is essential therefore to use each cache only from
+// a single thread.
+//
+// The intended use is for lightweight management of OOL (malloc'd) storage
+// associated with WasmStructObject and WasmArrayObject. The mechanism is
+// general and potentially has other uses. Blocks of size STEP * NUM_LISTS
+// and larger are never cached, though.
+//
+// Request sizes are rounded up to a multiple of STEP. There are NUM_LISTS-1
+// free lists, with a "List ID" indicating the multiple of STEP stored on the
+// list. So for example, blocks of size 3 * STEP (after rounding up) are
+// stored on the list with ID 3. List ID 0 indicates blocks which are too
+// large to live on any freelist. With the default settings, this gives
+// separate freelists for blocks of size 16, 32, 48, .. 496. Blocks of size
+// zero are not supported, and `lists[0]` will always be empty.
+//
+// Allocation of a block produces not only the block's address but also its
+// List ID. When freeing, both values must be presented, because there is
+// otherwise no way for ::free to know the size of the original allocation,
+// and hence which freelist it should go on. For this reason, the ::alloc and
+// ::free methods produce and take a `PointerAndUint7`, not a `void*`.
+//
+// Resizing of blocks is not supported.
