Sorta. We use a concept of "chunk"s for memory usage when it's
a lot of blocks of fixed sizes. ie: BGP table

This "transient memory" concept if more of how to manage the entire
heap region to prevent memory blocks from being scattered throughout
the entire region hence decreasing the chance we can coalesce back
together. 

But back to my question. What problem are you seeing and can you
send the outputs?
