About the episode

In this video, we explore how to use sync.Pool in Go to manage resources efficiently. By reusing expensive-to-create objects like buffers and slices, we can minimize memory allocations and reduce pressure on the garbage collector—key for building high-performance applications.

In this video, we cover:
- What is sync.Pool?
- Basics of how sync.Pool works
- Real-world examples of reusing []byte slices
- Efficient handling of resources with multiple goroutines using the pool
- Dos amd Don'ts/

By the end of this video, you’ll see how sync.Pool reduces expensive allocations and boosts performance in high-load applications.
