Description
This would tell us at a glance how effectively the tcache is sized for a given size class. I think we already collect and display all the information needed to compute it; this would just be a visual hint.

Research direction
Start by locating the tcache statistics collection and display code, then review which existing flushes, frees, fills, and malloc values are available for each size class. Define the visual hint as the computed flushes/free to fills/malloc relationship and verify that it is shown alongside the existing information.
