noooo, we don't want competing slab allocators, please.  We should get slub

Owww... You throw my roadmap out of the window and may create too

I am the one who has to maintain SLAB and SLUB it seems and I have been 
dealing with the trio SLAB, SLOB and SLUB for awhile now. Its okay and it 
will be much easier once the cleanups are in.
