 The `Buffer` module pre-allocates an internal `Buffer` instance of
 size [`Buffer.poolSize`][] that is used as a pool for the fast allocation of new
-`Buffer` instances created using [`Buffer.allocUnsafe()`][],
-[`Buffer.from(array)`][], [`Buffer.concat()`][], and the deprecated
-`new Buffer(size)` constructor only when `size` is less than or equal

 Use of this pre-allocated internal memory pool is a key difference between
 calling `Buffer.alloc(size, fill)` vs. `Buffer.allocUnsafe(size).fill(fill)`.
