+ * consumer in benchmarks. For Samba 3.2 we have internally converted many

+ *
+ * talloc_pool() is an optimization to call malloc(3) a lot less for the use
+ * pattern Samba has: The SMB protocol is mainly a request/response protocol
+ * where we have to allocate a certain amount of memory per request and free
+ * that after the SMB reply is sent to the client.
+ *
+ * talloc_pool() creates a talloc chunk that you can use as a talloc parent
+ * exactly as you would use any other ::TALLOC_CTX. The difference is that
+ * when you talloc a child of this pool, no malloc(3) is done. Instead, talloc
+ * just increments a pointer inside the talloc_pool. This also works
+ * recursively. If you use the child of the talloc pool as a parent for
+ * grand-children, their memory is also taken from the talloc pool.
+ *
+ * If there is not enough memory in the pool to allocate the new child,
+ * it will create a new talloc chunk as if the parent was a normal talloc
+ * context.
+ *
+ * If you talloc_free() children of a talloc pool, the memory is not given
+ * back to the system. Instead, free(3) is only called if the talloc_pool()
+ * itself is released with talloc_free().
+ *
+ * The downside of a talloc pool is that if you talloc_move() a child of a
