    The Memory Pool System is a very general, adaptable, flexible,
    reliable, and efficient memory management system. It permits the
    flexible combination of memory management techniques, supporting
    manual and automatic memory management, in-line allocation,
    finalization, weakness, and multiple concurrent co-operating
    incremental generational garbage collections. It also includes a
    library of memory pool classes implementing specialized memory
    management policies. 

The code is offered under an open source license.
