Trying to avoid / cache buffer allocation when serializing object

[Shay Banon]

Hi,

   I was wondering if there is a nice way to try and avoid buffer allocation
when serializing objects. I have my own way of serializing objects, but the
idea is very similar to ObjectEncoder, which allocates a new buffer for each
written message. I understand that its very difficult to serialize directly
to the socket in non blocking IO, but was wondering if there is a good way
to not allocate a buffer each time but maybe reuse buffers.

   I could build my own cache of buffers, get one before writing and release
it when the write is completed. Wondering if there is a better way to do
it...
