Change malloc functions to nginx's custom ones #10

Closed flavioribeiro closed 11 years ago

flavioribeiro commented 11 years ago

@wandemberg said that nginx have a pool that is destroyed after the request is terminated. It's better to use nginx's malloc/free to take advantage of this functionality

First thing to notice is Nginx's memory allocation; it takes care of the free'ing as long as the module uses ngx_palloc (a malloc wrapper) or ngx_pcalloc (a calloc wrapper).
