I have a dim memory that this was a constraint of TLSF to achieve O(1) runtime.

[haukepetersen]

wont be fixed for this release -> postponed.

[kYc0o]

Is this issue still present?

[OlegHahm]

AFAIR this is an inherent problem of the TLSF implementation. One way to go around it, would be just not to offer TLSF support for 16-bit platforms and add another package for malloc on these platforms.

[kYc0o]

Ok well let's discuss it for the next release.

[miri64]

I say the same, since it is an inherent problem I don't see it necessary to mark it as a "known issue"
