+ This directory contains the pool allocator runtime library implementations.
+ 
+ The only fully maintained runtime library implementation is in the FL2Allocator
+ directory.  This supports the pool allocator, the bump pointer optimization,
+ and the pointer compression runtime.
+ 
+ The implementation is the FreeListAllocator directory is much slower than
+ the FL2Allocator and has not been updated.
+ 
+ The implementation in the PoolAllocator directory is also probably out of date,
+ and is much slower than FL2, but is used by the SAFECode project, which cannot
+ allow pool metadata to be stored intermixed with program data.
