+ *
+ * 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.
