+Building and installing jemalloc can be as simple as typing the following while
+in the root directory of the source tree:
+
+    ./configure
+    make
+    make install
+
+=== Advanced configuration =====================================================
+
+The 'configure' script supports numerous options that allow control of which
+functionality is enabled, where jemalloc is installed, etc.  Optionally, pass
+any of the following arguments (not a definitive list) to 'configure':
+
+--help
+    Print a definitive list of options.
+
+--prefix=<install-root-dir>
+    Set the base directory in which to install.  For example:
+
+        ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
+
+    will cause files to be installed into /usr/local/include, /usr/local/lib,
+    and /usr/local/man.
+
+--with-rpath=<colon-separated-rpath>
+    Embed one or more library paths, so that libjemalloc can find the libraries
+    it is linked to.  This works only on ELF-based systems.
+
+--with-mangling=<map>
+    Mangle public symbols specified in <map> which is a comma-separated list of
+    name:mangled pairs.
+
+    For example, to use ld's --wrap option as an alternative method for
+    overriding libc's malloc implementation, specify something like:
+
+      --with-mangling=malloc:__wrap_malloc,free:__wrap_free[...]
+
+    Note that mangling happens prior to application of the prefix specified by
+    --with-jemalloc-prefix, and mangled symbols are then ignored when applying
+    the prefix.
+
+--with-jemalloc-prefix=<prefix>
+    Prefix all public APIs with <prefix>.  For example, if <prefix> is
+    "prefix_", API changes like the following occur:
+
+      malloc()         --> prefix_malloc()
+      malloc_conf      --> prefix_malloc_conf
+      /etc/malloc.conf --> /etc/prefix_malloc.conf
+      MALLOC_CONF      --> PREFIX_MALLOC_CONF
+
+    This makes it possible to use jemalloc at the same time as the system
+    allocator, or even to use multiple copies of jemalloc simultaneously.
+
+    By default, the prefix is "", except on OS X, where it is "je_".  On OS X,
+    jemalloc overlays the default malloc zone, but makes no attempt to actually
+    replace the "malloc", "calloc", etc. symbols.
+
+--without-export
+    Don't export public APIs. This can be useful when building jemalloc as a
+    static library, or to avoid exporting public APIs when using the zone
+    allocator on OSX.
+
+--with-private-namespace=<prefix>
+    Prefix all library-private APIs with <prefix>.  For shared libraries,
+    symbol visibility mechanisms prevent these symbols from being exported, but
+    for static libraries, naming collisions are a real possibility.  By
+    default, the prefix is "" (empty string).
+
+--with-install-suffix=<suffix>
+    Append <suffix> to the base name of all installed files, such that multiple
+    versions of jemalloc can coexist in the same installation directory.  For
+    example, libjemalloc.so.0 becomes libjemalloc<suffix>.so.0.
+
+--enable-cc-silence
+    Enable code that silences non-useful compiler warnings.  This is helpful
+    when trying to tell serious warnings from those due to compiler
+    limitations, but it potentially incurs a performance penalty.
+
+--enable-debug
+    Enable assertions and validation code.  This incurs a substantial
+    performance hit, but is very useful during application development.
+    Implies --enable-ivsalloc.
+
+--enable-ivsalloc
+    Enable validation code, which verifies that pointers reside within
+    jemalloc-owned chunks before dereferencing them. This incurs a substantial
+    performance hit.
+
+--disable-stats
+    Disable statistics gathering functionality.  See the "opt.stats_print"
+    option documentation for usage details.
+
+--enable-prof
+    Enable heap profiling and leak detection functionality.  See the "opt.prof"
+    option documentation for usage details.  When enabled, there are several
+    approaches to backtracing, and the configure script chooses the first one
+    in the following list that appears to function correctly:
+
+    + libunwind      (requires --enable-prof-libunwind)
+    + libgcc         (unless --disable-prof-libgcc)
+    + gcc intrinsics (unless --disable-prof-gcc)
+
+--enable-prof-libunwind
+    Use the libunwind library (http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/) for stack
+    backtracing.
+
+--disable-prof-libgcc
+    Disable the use of libgcc's backtracing functionality.
+
+--disable-prof-gcc
+    Disable the use of gcc intrinsics for backtracing.
+
+--with-static-libunwind=<libunwind.a>
+    Statically link against the specified libunwind.a rather than dynamically
+    linking with -lunwind.
+
+--disable-tcache
+    Disable thread-specific caches for small objects.  Objects are cached and
+    released in bulk, thus reducing the total number of mutex operations.  See
+    the "opt.tcache" option for usage details.
+
+--enable-mremap
+    Enable huge realloc() via mremap(2).  mremap() is disabled by default
+    because the flavor used is specific to Linux, which has a quirk in its
+    virtual memory allocation algorithm that causes semi-permanent VM map holes
+    under normal jemalloc operation.
+
+--disable-munmap
+    Disable virtual memory deallocation via munmap(2); instead keep track of
+    the virtual memory for later use.  munmap() is disabled by default (i.e.
+    --disable-munmap is implied) on Linux, which has a quirk in its virtual
+    memory allocation algorithm that causes semi-permanent VM map holes under
+    normal jemalloc operation.
+
+--enable-dss
+    Enable support for page allocation/deallocation via sbrk(2), in addition to
+    mmap(2).
+
+--disable-fill
+    Disable support for junk/zero filling of memory, quarantine, and redzones.
+    See the "opt.junk", "opt.zero", "opt.quarantine", and "opt.redzone" option
+    documentation for usage details.
+
+--disable-valgrind
+    Disable support for Valgrind.
+
+--disable-experimental
+    Disable support for the experimental API (*allocm()).
+
+--disable-zone-allocator
+    Disable zone allocator for Darwin. This means jemalloc won't be hooked as
+    the default allocator on OSX/iOS.
+
+--enable-utrace
+    Enable utrace(2)-based allocation tracing.  This feature is not broadly
+    portable (FreeBSD has it, but Linux and OS X do not).
+
+--enable-xmalloc
+    Enable support for optional immediate termination due to out-of-memory
+    errors, as is commonly implemented by "xmalloc" wrapper function for malloc.
+    See the "opt.xmalloc" option documentation for usage details.
+
+--enable-lazy-lock
+    Enable code that wraps pthread_create() to detect when an application
+    switches from single-threaded to multi-threaded mode, so that it can avoid
+    mutex locking/unlocking operations while in single-threaded mode.  In
+    practice, this feature usually has little impact on performance unless
+    thread-specific caching is disabled.
+
+--disable-tls
+    Disable thread-local storage (TLS), which allows for fast access to
+    thread-local variables via the __thread keyword.  If TLS is available,
+    jemalloc uses it for several purposes.
+
+--with-xslroot=<path>
+    Specify where to find DocBook XSL stylesheets when building the
+    documentation.
+
+The following environment variables (not a definitive list) impact configure's
+behavior:
+
+CFLAGS="?"
+    Pass these flags to the compiler.  You probably shouldn't define this unless
+    you know what you are doing.  (Use EXTRA_CFLAGS instead.)
+
+EXTRA_CFLAGS="?"
+    Append these flags to CFLAGS.  This makes it possible to add flags such as
+    -Werror, while allowing the configure script to determine what other flags
+    are appropriate for the specified configuration.
+
+    The configure script specifically checks whether an optimization flag (-O*)
+    is specified in EXTRA_CFLAGS, and refrains from specifying an optimization
+    level if it finds that one has already been specified.
+
+CPPFLAGS="?"
+    Pass these flags to the C preprocessor.  Note that CFLAGS is not passed to
+    'cpp' when 'configure' is looking for include files, so you must use
+    CPPFLAGS instead if you need to help 'configure' find header files.
+
+LD_LIBRARY_PATH="?"
+    'ld' uses this colon-separated list to find libraries.
+
+LDFLAGS="?"
+    Pass these flags when linking.
+
+PATH="?"
+    'configure' uses this to find programs.
+
+=== Advanced compilation =======================================================
+
+To build only parts of jemalloc, use the following targets:
+
+    build_lib_shared
+    build_lib_static
+    build_lib
+    build_doc_html
+    build_doc_man
+    build_doc
+
+To install only parts of jemalloc, use the following targets:
+
+    install_bin
+    install_include
+    install_lib_shared
+    install_lib_static
+    install_lib
+    install_doc_html
+    install_doc_man
+    install_doc
+
+To clean up build results to varying degrees, use the following make targets:
+
+    clean
+    distclean
+    relclean
+
+=== Advanced installation ======================================================
+
+Optionally, define make variables when invoking make, including (not
+exclusively):
+
+INCLUDEDIR="?"
+    Use this as the installation prefix for header files.
+
+LIBDIR="?"
+    Use this as the installation prefix for libraries.
+
+MANDIR="?"
+    Use this as the installation prefix for man pages.
+
+DESTDIR="?"
+    Prepend DESTDIR to INCLUDEDIR, LIBDIR, DATADIR, and MANDIR.  This is useful
+    when installing to a different path than was specified via --prefix.
+
+CC="?"
+    Use this to invoke the C compiler.
+
+CFLAGS="?"
+    Pass these flags to the compiler.
+
+CPPFLAGS="?"
+    Pass these flags to the C preprocessor.
+
+LDFLAGS="?"
+    Pass these flags when linking.
+
+PATH="?"
+    Use this to search for programs used during configuration and building.
+
+=== Development ================================================================
+
+If you intend to make non-trivial changes to jemalloc, use the 'autogen.sh'
+script rather than 'configure'.  This re-generates 'configure', enables
+configuration dependency rules, and enables re-generation of automatically
+generated source files.
+
+The build system supports using an object directory separate from the source
+tree.  For example, you can create an 'obj' directory, and from within that
+directory, issue configuration and build commands:
+
+    autoconf
+    mkdir obj
+    cd obj
+    ../configure --enable-autogen
+    make
+
+=== Documentation ==============================================================
+
+The manual page is generated in both html and roff formats.  Any web browser
+can be used to view the html manual.  The roff manual page can be formatted
+prior to installation via the following command:
+
+    nroff -man -t doc/jemalloc.3
