+=item SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS
+
+When we no longer need a read buffer or a write buffer for a given SSL,
+then release the memory we were using to hold it. Released memory is
+either appended to a list of unused RAM chunks on the SSL_CTX, or simply
+freed if the list of unused chunks would become longer than
+SSL_CTX->freelist_max_len, which defaults to 32. Using this flag can
+save around 34k per idle SSL connection.
+This flag has no effect on SSL v2 connections, or on DTLS connections.
