Probably VM fragmentation. Remember that Wine is loading more things
behind the scenes, and at different locations, than Windows would. So
there is less contiguous VM space available. If you change your benchmark
to allocate, say, 1mb chunks using VirtualAlloc instead of HeapAlloc it
might do better.
