It is actually fairly common to not deallocate and reuse the pool 
for later allocations.

Also, it doesn't matter as the complexity of deallocation doesn't 
depend on the size of the block deallocated.

In the case of a copying collector, the deallocation won't even 
show up in benchmark as tracing and copying will dominate CPU 
time by a LOT !
