What would you add to the output to make it more useful? The main difference
between "show malloc" and "vmstat -m", other than any "use over time"
associated with multiple runs of vmstat -m, is the malloc size bitmask. This
is relatively easily added to kern_malloc.c.

Want to add "show contigmalloc"?
I've found it significantly easier to debug memory leaks since adding these
DDB commands, but they are easily enhanced to carry more information than they
