I've been keeping an eye on malloc's for quite a while, and they are getting ridiculously big nowadays. The malloc complexity seems to be greater than the programs themselves. With that kind of complexity it's hard to do objective comparisons, and the frameworks to do objective tests are nowhere to be found. So it is no surprise everyone claims to be best. Hint: Complex malloc for complex things.

If you like mallocs: https://github.com/emeryberger/Malloc-Implementations. Don't think they have the disruptor based one yet: https://github.com/bytemaster/disruptor/tree/master/fc2
