/**
 * SynchBuffer completes the {@link BatchSynchQueueBase} abstract class by providing an implementation of the underlying
 * queue as an array. This uses FIFO ordering for the queue but restricts the maximum size of the queue to a fixed
 * amount. It also has the advantage that, as the buffer does not grow and shrink dynamically, memory for the buffer
 * is allocated up front and does not create garbage during the operation of the queue.
