Hmmm. MallocArrays and AllocArrays are quite similar names.

I originally planned to name this package Malloc.jl, but then I realized that it provides the MallocArray type as its primary functionality so I renamed it to MallocArrays.jl. I'm open to Malloc.jl, MallocArrays.jl, or some other, better name someone else can come up with.

[noblock] I have no particular opinions here, although I agree that AllocArrays and MallocArrays seem a little too close for comfort. Maybe get some more eyeballs on this on Slack and/or Discourse for naming suggestions.
