bpool 
Package bpool implements leaky pools of byte arrays and Buffers as bounded channels. It is based on the leaky buffer example from the Effective Go documentation: http://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html#leaky_buffer
bpool provides the following pool types:
- bpool.BufferPool which provides a fixed-size pool of bytes.Buffers.
- bpool.BytePool which
provides a fixed-size pool of
[]byteslices with a pre-set width (length). - bpool.SizedBufferPool,
which is an alternative to
bpool.BufferPoolthat pre-sizes the capacity of buffers issued from the pool and discards buffers that have grown too large upon return.
A common use case for this package is to use buffers to execute HTML templates
against (via ExecuteTemplate) or encode JSON into (via json.NewEncoder). This
allows you to catch any rendering or marshalling errors prior to writing to a
http.ResponseWriter, which helps to avoid writing incomplete or malformed data
to the response.

Example
Here's a quick example for using bpool.BufferPool. We create a pool of the
desired size, call the Get() method to obtain a buffer for use, and call
Put(buf) to return the buffer to the pool.
var bufpool *bpool.BufferPool
func main() {
bufpool = bpool.NewBufferPool(48)
}
func someFunction() error {
// Get a buffer from the pool
buf := bufpool.Get()
...
...
...
// Return the buffer to the pool
bufpool.Put(buf)
return nil
}

Types ¶
type BufferPool ¶
type BufferPool struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
BufferPool implements a pool of bytes.Buffers in the form of a bounded channel.
func NewBufferPool ¶
func NewBufferPool(size int) (bp *BufferPool)
NewBufferPool creates a new BufferPool bounded to the given size.
func (*BufferPool) Get ¶
func (bp *BufferPool) Get() (b *bytes.Buffer)
Get gets a Buffer from the BufferPool, or creates a new one if none are available in the pool.
func (*BufferPool) Put ¶
func (bp *BufferPool) Put(b *bytes.Buffer)
Put returns the given Buffer to the BufferPool.
type BytePool ¶
type BytePool struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
BytePool implements a leaky pool of []byte in the form of a bounded channel.
func NewBytePool ¶
NewBytePool creates a new BytePool bounded to the given maxSize, with new byte arrays sized based on width.
func (*BytePool) Get ¶
Get gets a []byte from the BytePool, or creates a new one if none are available in the pool.
type SizedBufferPool ¶
type SizedBufferPool struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
SizedBufferPool implements a pool of bytes.Buffers in the form of a bounded channel. Buffers are pre-allocated to the requested size.
func NewSizedBufferPool ¶
func NewSizedBufferPool(size int, alloc int) (bp *SizedBufferPool)
SizedBufferPool creates a new BufferPool bounded to the given size. size defines the number of buffers to be retained in the pool and alloc sets the initial capacity of new buffers to minimize calls to make().
The value of alloc should seek to provide a buffer that is representative of most data written to the the buffer (i.e. 95th percentile) without being overly large (which will increase static memory consumption). You may wish to track the capacity of your last N buffers (i.e. using an []int) prior to returning them to the pool as input into calculating a suitable alloc value.
func (*SizedBufferPool) Get ¶
func (bp *SizedBufferPool) Get() (b *bytes.Buffer)
Get gets a Buffer from the SizedBufferPool, or creates a new one if none are available in the pool. Buffers have a pre-allocated capacity.
func (*SizedBufferPool) Put ¶
func (bp *SizedBufferPool) Put(b *bytes.Buffer)
Put returns the given Buffer to the SizedBufferPool.
