Show HN: Heap Explorer

I wrote a little LD_PRELOAD library that makes it easy to inspect and interact with a running program's glibc heap.

It's fun to pause processes, free a bunch of their allocations, then resume them. Most of the time, the processes continue as though nothing happened, but sometimes they do interesting things :)
