Detailed Description

The BufferAllocator is a wrapper around the global allocator class that sends any allocations made through the buffer manager. This makes the buffer manager aware of the memory usage, allowing it to potentially free other blocks to make space in memory. Note that there is a cost to doing so (several atomic operations will be performed on allocation/free). As such this class should be used primarily for larger allocations.
