+ * \brief An object pool is a mechanism for sharing a small pool of
+ * fungible objects among a large number of objects that depend on them.
+ *
+ * This is useful, for example, when it causes performance problems for
+ * large number of zones to share a single memory context or task object,
+ * but it would create a different set of problems for them each to have an
+ * independent task or memory context.
