rving the smallest blocks accommodating at least size bytes.</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>When a particular pool is exhausted, allocating a block from that pool results in the allocation of an additional chunk of memory from the upstream allocator (supplied at construction), thus replenishing the pool. With each successive replenishment, the chunk size obtained increases geometrically. [ Note: By allocating memory in chunks, the pooling strategy increases the chance that consecutive allocations will be
