Its not just performance. Using well debugged and shared core code
means less bugs in your driver. It makes maintenance simpler since
there are more people who understand the page pool code than what you
have in your driver and it makes your driver more like other drivers.

So overall you will end up with a better quality driver by adapting
the page pool code.
