Oh, now you get to my comment in the preceding patch. With this patch
we're now in a somewhat weird in-between state where the buffers are
still static, but we release their memory after each call. So we kind of
get the worst of both worlds: static variables without being able to
reuse the buffer's memory.

If we were to change this then we should definitely mark the buffers as
non-static. If so, it would be great to demonstrate that this does not
significantly impact performance.

The same is true for all the other instances.
