Arena::try_alloc_layout_slow_impl was calculating target size for the new chunk with old_size.checked_mul(2).

This check is unnecessary because old_size comes from a Layout, and so cannot exceed isize::MAX, so doubling it cannot overflow usize. Remove the check and just use old_size * 2 instead.

Pull request overview

This PR optimizes the arena allocator slow-path growth logic by removing an unnecessary overflow check when computing the next chunk’s target size, based on the invariant that chunk Layout sizes are bounded by isize::MAX.

Changes:

  • Precompute current_size_without_footer and use current_size_without_footer * 2 instead of checked_mul(2)?.
  • Add an explanatory comment documenting why the multiplication cannot overflow.

…ut_slow_impl` (#21732)

`Arena::try_alloc_layout_slow_impl` was calculating target size for the new chunk with `old_size.checked_mul(2)`.

This check is unnecessary because `old_size` comes from a `Layout`, and so cannot exceed `isize::MAX`, so doubling it cannot overflow `usize`. Remove the check and just use `old_size * 2` instead.
