Description: A memory pool is a memory management technique that allocates a block of memory for use by multiple objects. This strategy allows for the reuse of memory blocks, reducing fragmentation and improving efficiency in memory allocation and deallocation. Instead of requesting and freeing memory individually for each object, a memory pool preallocates a set of fixed-size blocks, minimizing the cost of allocation operations. Objects that require memory can obtain it from the pool, and when they are no longer needed, the memory can be returned to the pool for reuse. This technique is particularly useful in applications where many objects are created and destroyed frequently, such as in high-performance systems, where performance is critical. Additionally, using memory pools can help avoid memory fragmentation issues, as memory blocks are managed in a more controlled manner. The implementation of a memory pool can be done through classes and structures that encapsulate the allocation and deallocation logic, allowing developers to optimize memory usage in their applications.
