Firefox used to use their own memory allocator back in the early days too, and I remember reading of many similar cases. It seems like a certain kind of rite of passage to waste time on rolling your own and later reverting that decision.
Some might call it "maturing".

Second, I'm pretty sure Firefox still uses jemalloc to this day, and it was an important optimization on windows. I don't think they ever used it on linux, since the system allocater was more up to the task there.
