> Thanks for the replies. I will most likely be writing in C++ ... If you've not already, rush out and buy Effective C++ by Scott Meyers. Item 10 shows you a memory pool, items 1..9 and 11..50 will also come in useful. As will More Effective C++, and Effective STL.
Boost has a memory pool library (*). I use boost/detail/quick_allocator.hpp (and if you are familiar with Boost, the "detail/" means an unsupported library whose interface may change without warning) which was quickest as long as I disabled thread support. If you are planning to have multiple threads share the same memory pool I suggest the main boost pool library (*), as I'm sure they've taken care of the issues, while never losing sight of efficiency.
