 #include <cx/buffer.h>

-The function `cxBufferMinimumCapacity()` guarantees a buffer capacity of _at least_ `capacity`.
-The actual capacity will be a power of two until the system's page size is reached.
+The functions `cxBufferReserve()` and `cxBufferMinimumCapacity()` guarantee a buffer capacity of _at least_ `capacity`.
+The difference is, that `cxBufferReserve()` will not increase the capacity beyond the specified `capacity`,
+while `cxBufferMinimumCapacity()` will grow the capacity in powers of two until the system's page size is reached.
 Then, the new capacity will be a multiple of the page size.
 The function returns non-zero if increasing the capacity was attempted unsuccessfully.
 
+You should use `cxBufferReserve()` when you know precisely the required capacity beforehand
+and `cxBufferMinimumCapacity()` when it is likely that the buffer needs to regrow soon.
+
 The function `cxBufferShrink()` can be used to shrink the capacity of the buffer to its current size
 plus a number of `reserve` bytes.
 If the current capacity is not larger than the size plus the reserve bytes, the function will do nothing.
