Yes, I also that it's not likely to be necessary.
The functionality of support for more than one is there (i.e. in
the freeing-list code). As I mentioned in this thread before,
I had *no* idea (and still have none) on _what_ number to settle if
greater than one.
OTOH, if the powers that be decide that more than one is
nevertheless necessary, a mempool, I think, would be quite appropriate.
