I think these are the 2 that make sense (from my perspective):
1. Pooling heap memory still suffers from interactions with GC and will
still involve copying the buffers multiple times when reading/writing on
network.
Sure, it would reduce the allocation rate, but if one wants to pool
memory it's preferable to use direct memory.
2. Using unpooled direct memory for each buffer would be very slow so not
to be useful in practice
