The reason I speculated that these are freeabl is because in Steve Adams
book, the definition of freeable is that "Chunks contain objects that
are normally needed for the duration of a session call, and are freed
thereafter ...". Let's see if Steve has some time to clarify this.

I *think* these allocations are not freeable as long as the session is 
"alive".
Correct me if I'm wrong.
