Are you saying that this is not the case in the pooled allocator? Object allocation is always very cheap. Garbage collection in the eden space is incredibly cheap, and most buffers are short-lived. I suspect that this may be a premature micro-optimization. I see no difference in JVM pause time or GC run rates when I disable the recycler completely. > Im working on another fix for the problem you see.
