Put in something to count the number of calls to malloc() and free()
respectively. Don't forget calls outside of loops.
This can be as simple as a `printf("+");` and `printf("-");`
respectively at each call site. Or put breakpoints at each (or at the
respective function entry point) and keep a manual count.
See how many times each is reached.
