Of course, but that's not really what I have been referring to, is it?
Please re-read my previous posts.

You're quite correct, it's just that in the case I've described such a
container would be pretty useless. For reference, the state-allocating
operation I referred to earlier took roughly two seconds, so the
difference between a pooling and non-pooling container would be HUGE.
I would, personally, prefer a container that gives me both options.
