Well, then what is most apropriate: deriving from pfObject or
from pfMemory? What is the difference, anyway?

There are probably lots of people out there more qualified than me to answer that. As far as I know, the only differences between a pfMemory and a pfObject are that:

a pfObject makes it possible to attach "user data" to the object;
a pfObject is allocated in shared memory by default;
a pfObject cannot be created before calling pfConfig().

I would say that which you use depends on which is most annoying for you: having to specify the shared memory arena when you instance your class, or having to call pfConfig() before you instance it.
