<jemalloc>: Unsupported system page size
<jemalloc>: Unsupported system page size
memory allocation of 5 bytes failed
Aborted
confirmation of the page size;
$ getconf PAGE_SIZE

Steps to reproduce (if applicable)
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- follow the installation instructions on a raspberry pi 5
- watch it crash
Expected behavior
It should run as per the instructions
Configuration:
Please provide:
- Output of

Research direction
Start by reproducing the crash on a Raspberry Pi 5 using the quickwit-v0.8.0 aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu binary and confirm the 16KB page size with getconf PAGE_SIZE. Trace the jemalloc configuration involved in the packaged binary; done means Quickwit starts and runs on this platform without the unsupported-page-size or allocation failure.
