The received packet is copied into a newly allocated memory chunk for further
processing by the assigned callback. Once this is done, the memory is free'd.
This is repeated for each received packet making the memory allocation / free
an expensive task. To optimize this process, a memory pool is defined which
is sized identically to the queue's buffer.
During tests it could be seen that more than 95% of all messages were sized
below the standard buffer_size of 1k.
