    ditto, this path would require changing `BufferOrEvent` to 
`BufferBuilderOrEvent`.

> While Buffer class is used in multithreaded context it requires 
> synchronisation. Now it is miss-leading/unclear and suggesting that 
> RecordSerializer should take into account synchronisation of the Buffer 
> that's holding. With NotThreadSafe BufferBuilder there would be clear 
> separation between single-threaded writing/creating a BufferBuilder and 
> multithreaded Buffer handling/retaining/recycling.
