not own its underlying `ArrayBuffer`. An `ArrayBuffer` must not
be transferred unless it is known that the `Buffer` instance
owns it. In particular, for `Buffer`s created from the internal
`Buffer` pool (using, for instance `Buffer.from()` or `Buffer.alloc()`),
`Buffer` pool (using, for instance `Buffer.from()` or `Buffer.allocUnsafe()`),
transferring them is not possible and they are always cloned,
which sends a copy of the entire `Buffer` pool.
This behavior may come with unintended higher memory
