I can confirm similar behaviour under 64-bit FreeBSD 10.1. Compiled
without cmem is ends up using over a Gig of memory.

What is interesting is that the library (when compiled without cmem)
shows 8000-10000 per sec output and takes 7-10 seconds to complete. When
I enable cmem, then the program outputs 81500/sec and completes within 1
second so I can't even check it's memory usage.
