You can create your own pool as a subpool of r->pool, and periodically clear the pool to flush data that have been sent down the output chain. Alternatively, if you can generate the data without reference to a pool (e.g. in non-pool buckets, or with ap_rwrite & family), the output brigades should deal with clearing it after use. -- Nick Kew
