/   Description:    Allocation from separate "pools" of memory. Those pools
/					will be locked in RAM if realtime allocators are turned
/					on in the BMediaRoster, so don't waste this memory unless
/					it's needed. Also, the shared pool is a scarce resource,
/					so it's better if you create your own pool for your own
/					needs and leave the shared pool for BMediaNode instances
/					and the needs of the Media Kit.
