VirtualAlloc returns chunks that have 'dwAllocationGranularity' granularity, 
which is 64K on every Windows OS I've used. So allocating a page, 4K, will 
actualy get you 64K.

So using VirtualAlloc as a replacement for malloc is very wasteful unless 
the allocations are larger that 64K.

You might want to look at HeapCreate and it's siblings. (on windows anyway)
