Question: Do you always check if it is success when calling "new" operator?

    Not really. We pretty much only use new for single objects (and use malloc/free/WDL_HeapBuf-based storage for everything else).

    We do verify that our allocations succeed, when it is likely that they are for enough RAM where the heap could conceivably not have a block big enough. I love x86_64, btw. mmm.
