        if(req.url == "/jemalloc") {
                return (synth(200, "JEMALLOC"));
        }
}

sub vcl_synth {
        set resp.http.Content-Type = "text/plain; charset=utf-8";
        synthetic(jemalloc.get_stats());
        return (deliver);
}

sub vcl_deliver {
        if (req.http.jemalloc) {
                jemalloc.print_stats();
        }
}
