statistics about get from/put in the pool are stored in the mempool structure.
Statistics are per-lcore to avoid concurrent access to statistics counters.

-Depending on hardware memory configuration, performance can be greatly improved by adding a specific padding between objects.
+Depending on hardware memory configuration on X86 architecture, performance can be greatly improved by adding a specific padding between objects.
The objective is to ensure that the beginning of each object starts on a different channel and rank in memory so that all channels are equally loaded.
This is particularly true for packet buffers when doing L3 forwarding or flow classification.
Alternatively to the internal default per-lcore local cache, an application can create and manage external caches through the ``rte_mempool_cache_create()``, ``rte_mempool_cache_free()`` and ``rte_mempool_cache_flush()`` calls.
These user-owned caches can be explicitly passed to ``rte_mempool_generic_put()`` and ``rte_mempool_generic_get()``.
The ``rte_mempool_default_cache()`` call returns the default internal cache if any.
-In contrast to the default caches, user-owned caches can be used by non-EAL threads too.
