Seems like there should be a performance benefit from not constantly blowing out your L2 cache. If you can keep your object pool hot there should be quite a bit of performance to be gained. The downside is that this would require active memory management (explicitly freeing the objects when you're done with them) and if you have that why bother programming in a GC language in the first place?
