 The `Buffer` module pre-allocates an internal `Buffer` instance of
 size [`Buffer.poolSize`][] that is used as a pool for the fast allocation of new
 `Buffer` instances created using [`Buffer.allocUnsafe()`][], [`Buffer.from(array)`][],
-and [`Buffer.concat()`][] only when `size` is less than or equal to
-`Buffer.poolSize >> 1` (floor of [`Buffer.poolSize`][] divided by two).

 Use of this pre-allocated internal memory pool is a key difference between
 calling `Buffer.alloc(size, fill)` vs. `Buffer.allocUnsafe(size).fill(fill)`.
