Showtime PS3 Media Player v3.5.72 Changelog:

3.5.69-ga3159fe

PS3: Use jemalloc instead of newlib's malloc

Using jemalloc significantly reduces memory fragmentation and thus mitigates the out of memory conditions that happens

It's also much more efficient than newlib's malloc thanks to per-thread caching of allocation and per-thread memory arenas
