Each allocated chunk of memory is encapsulated in a fragment that has 
additional fields (e.g., to be able to find prev/next fragment). Also, 
the allocator rounds up the size to match the internal bus size, 
otherwise can get a SIGBUS on various architectures (e.g., xmalloc(3) 
will return a chunk of size 4 on 32bit system).

The used is counte only from parameters of xmalloc. All the extra fields 
and padding the size are counted to get the real used.

Cheers,
Daniel
