Try mimalloc. I have prototyped a feature on top of mimalloc and while effort was a dead end, the code (this was around 2020) was nicely written and well maintained and it was fun to hack on it. When I swapped jemalloc in our system with mimalloc, it was on par if not better when it comes to fragmentation growth control and heap usage perspective.
