Goal

For Solaris environment, it is suggested to use fw_nomalloc instead of ifw along with setting LD_PRELOAD_64 environment variable to enable the libumem memory allocator.

In Billing and Revenue Management (BRM) 7.5 Patch Set 22, there is ifw_nomalloc executable to start the pipelines like below:
bin/ifw_nomalloc -r ./ST_CUSTOM/conf/st_realtimeZoningPipeline1.reg& - realtime zoning pipeline

However, after upgrade to BRM 12 PS6 setup, there is no ifw_nomalloc under $IFW_HOME/bin.

In BRM 7.5 PS22 env,
/ifw/bin> ls -lrt ifw*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pindev18 pin 830344 Dec 12 2019 ifw_eventhandler64
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pindev18 pin 830344 Dec 12 2019 ifw_eventhandler
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pindev18 pin 5449568 Dec 12 2019 ifw_nomalloc
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pindev18 pin 5451240 Dec 12 2019 ifw
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pindev18 pin 5449568 Dec 12 2019 ifw_qbhoard

In BRM 12 PS6 env,
/ifw/bin> ls -lrt ifw*
-rwxr--r-- 1 pindev1 pin 352560 Mar 27 08:34 ifw_eventhandler64
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pindev1 pin 2634416 Mar 27 08:35 ifw

Why is ifw_nomalloc missing in BRM 12 PS6 setup?
