  *    - no thread synchronization at all

+ *  1. The only class member is pointer to the first item (see union).
  *  2. Allocated block contains the blob header (see CHdr) followed by the raw byte data.
  *     Always, when it allocates memory the allocated size is:
  *                                                      sizeof(CHdr) + <data capacity>
  *  3. Two 'virtual' members (m_size and m_max_size) are stored in the CHdr at beginning
  *     of the alloated block.
- *  4. The pointter (in ptr_u) pobsize_ts behind the header (to the first data byte).
+ *  4. The pointer of the union pobsize_ts behind the header (to the first data byte).
  *     When memory block is allocated, the sizeof(CHdr) it added to it.
  *  5. Benefits of this layout:
