A generic object pool library for Go, a direct rewrite of Apache Commons Pool. It supports custom pooled object factories and rich lifecycle configuration including LIFO/FIFO ordering, validation, eviction, and blocking behavior.

Use cases

• pool reusable database or network connections in Go
• limit concurrent resource usage with a bounded object pool
• reuse expensive objects instead of allocating repeatedly
• control object lifecycle with eviction and idle validation
• port Apache Commons Pool semantics to a Go project

When to choose

• you need a battle-tested, Apache Commons Pool-style object pool in Go
• you need fine-grained control over pool sizing, eviction, and validation
• you want LIFO/FIFO pooling with blocking borrow semantics

When to avoid

• you only need a simple channel-based semaphore or sync.Pool for temporary buffers
• your target runtime is not Go
• you need a connection pool specific to a particular database driver
