Commons pool2 uses pretty lightweight locking and using a pool of
instances achieves the basic objective of reducing contention for
the single sync lock on one SummaryStatistics object.   I bet it
would improve throughput over the single-instance approach if
maxActive, maxIdle were tuned.  If I get some time to play with
this, I will report back with some benchmarks.
