alleakator provides a global allocator that leaks memory on purpose.

If you have a step based program that only runs for a short time, leaking memory is okay - and the fastest computations are the ones that aren't done.

This crate avoids the runtime overhead of freeing memory by just not doing it.

Add this to your main.rs:

use alleakator::Alleakator;

#[global_allocator]
static GLOBAL: Alleakator<YourAllocator> = Alleakator<YourAllocator>;

This works even if you don't use the standard library.

All function calls are forwarded to a parent allocator that you can specify except dealloc, which is just empty.

Contributions are welcome.
