New description:

 {{{
 Calling purge_memory() does not reset next_size in the
 memory pool implementation.

 This means that repeatedly allocating then calling
 purge_memory() causes the pool to allocate a buffer of
 double the size each time, even though the number of
 objects remains small.

 Thanks,

 Edmund Kapusniak.
