- added circular buffer pd/heavy example (works but process needs to be killed manually if launched via ssh?)

/**
 * The MessagePool is a basic memory management system. It reserves a large block of memory at initialisation
 * and proceeds to divide this block into smaller chunks (usually 512 bytes) as they are needed. These chunks are
 * further divided into 32, 64, 128, or 256 sections. Each of these sections is managed by a MessagePoolList (MPL).
 * An MPL is a linked-list data structure which is initialised such that its own pool of listnodes is filled with nodes
 * that point at each subblock (e.g. each 32-byte block of a 512-block chunk).
 *
 * MessagePool is loosely inspired by TCMalloc. http://goog-perftools.sourceforge.net/doc/tcmalloc.html
