Instances of HeartbeatPacket and EarthquakesRequestPacket are sent periodically during a connection. However, these two record classes carry no additional information, so it is safe to reuse a single instance for each of them. As ObjectInputStreams and ObjectOutputStreams track all instances involved in them, this can improve memory usage of the application.
