[Freeswitch-dev] freeswitch development question (memory allocation?) [SOLVED]

The question is : which pool should I use for each different thing I am 
trying to accomplish?

For instance the code below is part of my mod_radius_cdr experimentation.
When I am making use of a pool within a module should I :

a) create a new pool?
b) make use of an existing one?
c) what kind of pool should I use?
d) is it really just one pool (accessed through different handlers) and 
I am making myself look like a fool so far?
