       Memory Pool.

       The globus_memory abstraction implements a memory management pool for groups of same-sized data items.

globus_bool_tglobus_memory_destroy(globus_memory_t*mem_info)
       Destroy a memory pool. Free all the memory associated with the memory management structure. For every
       call to globus_memory_init() there should be a call to globus_memory_destroy() or else memory will leak.

   globus_bool_tglobus_memory_init(globus_memory_t*mem_info,intnode_size,intnode_count)
       Initialize memory pool. Initialize the globus memory management structure.

       Before using any functions associate with a memory structure this function must be called.

       Parametersmem_info The memory management datatype
           node_size The size of the memory to allocated with each pop.
           node_count The initial number of nodes allocated with the memory management structure. If it is
           exceeded more will be allocated.

   void*globus_memory_pop_node(globus_memory_t*mem_info)
       Retrieve a memory item from a pool. Pop a chunk of memory out of the memory management structure. Similar
       to malloc(). When no longer using this item, return it to the pool via globus_memory_push_node().

   globus_bool_tglobus_memory_push_node(globus_memory_t*mem_info,void*buffer)
       Return a memory item to the pool. Push a chunk of memory back into the memory management structure.
       Similar to free().
