Creating pools (for example pools of connections to a database).
Instead of creating a new connection each time you need one, keep a pool of opened connections and reuse opened connections that are free.
create n ?check ?validate f creates a new pool with at most n members. f is the function to use to create a new pool member.
An element of the pool is validated by the optional validate function before its use. Invalid elements are re-created.
The optional function check is called after a use of an element failed. It must call its argument exactly once with true if the pool member is still valid and false otherwise.
