The value of this tunable is the minimum size (in bytes) of the top-most, releasable chunk in an arena that will trigger a system call in order to return memory to the system from that arena.

https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Memory-Allocation-Tunables.html


MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLD_ is an environment variable that sets the size threshold for using the mmap system call to allocate memory instead of using the heap.

  • Default: 128 KiB
  • Behavior:
    • If a memory request is ≥ 128 KiB, mmap is used.
    • If < 128 KiB, the heap is used.
  • Purpose:
    • Helps manage large memory allocations more efficiently.
    • Can be adjusted to optimize performance for specific applications.

Any of these (YouTube Music) players are better choices than using an extension on a browser.
Also better features like lyrics, better interface...

PS: extensions can access all of your browser data, you need to trust the extensions hoping that they aren't sending your data to some 3rd party
