[sldev] Optimization via _set_sbh_threshold

[Nicholaz Beresford]

Hi!

I just added a

_set_sbh_threshold(1016);

near the top of WinMain and in one
situation it was like WOHAA! in others
I couldn't make out much difference.

But if someone has test procedures or
more experience with performance testing,
it may be worth some efforts.

I'll do a check tomorrow with counting
allocs of various sizes (categories) to
see if theory would back up usage of
this function.
