Indeed, we should align it:
91
on 32 for 586, PPro - K6-III
92
on 64 for K7 (maybe for P3 too).
93
Because L1 and L2 caches are aligned on those values.
94
But I don't want to code such logic here!
97
Because some CPUs need alignment, for example SSE2 on P4, & most RISC CPUs
98
it will just trigger an exception and the unaligned load will be done in the
99
exception handler or it will just segfault (SSE2 on P4).
100
Why not larger? Because I did not see a difference in benchmarks ...

BTW, malloc seems to do 8-byte alignment by default here.
