Hi Lorenzo,
Yes, using a common bundle pool is one of the enhancements that we would
like to add. It wouldn't just benefit in minimizing the output from the
aggregator. It could also act as an input cache for aggregations where
common output is not desired. What kept us from implementing this so far
is lack of time and resources. Please add your thoughts on this topic to
this bugzilla:
