/** @defgroup grp_rt_memcache RTMemCache - Memory Object Allocation Cache
* @ingroup grp_rt
*
* Optimized allocation, initialization, freeing and destruction of memory
* objects of the same kind and size. Objects are constructed once, then
* allocated and freed one or more times, until finally destructed together with
* the cache (RTMemCacheDestroy). It's expected behavior, even when pfnCtor is
* NULL, that the user will be store information that should be persistent
* across RTMemCacheFree calls.
*
* The objects are zeroed prior to calling pfnCtor. For obvious reasons, the
* objects are not touched by the cache after that, so that RTMemCacheAlloc will
* return the object in the same state as when it as handed to RTMemCacheFree.
*
* @todo A callback for the reuse (at alloc time) might be of interest.
