Let palloc and the arena share all of free memory. While the arena grows from bottom up, palloc grows from top down. When they start to overlap panic with out-of-memory. This also puts persistent and OS allocations on the same stack, causing single persistent allocations to use a whole page. But from observation there was never more than 1kb memory wasted due to alignment.

This also puts persistent and page allocations on the same stack, causing single small persistent allocations to use a whole page. But from observation there was never more than 1kb memory wasted due to alignment.
