Pooling Component Interfaces
Several services may use the same instance of a component interface in their implementations. To improve performance, you can pool component interfaces. Component interfaces must be scoped to one local PeopleCode event, but within that event the code can send several calls to services using the same open component interface.
The system then passes the component interface pool to the Service Manager's LocateService method. If a requestor is only issuing one service call in a PeopleCode Event, the system passes NULL as a component interface pool.
