--- Comment #4 from Pawel Sikora <pluto at agmk dot net> 2011-12-27 09:32:11 UTC --- i'm using the mt allocator for large std containers with small fixed-size objects. the mt's flexible pool configuration and alloc/free speed are an advantage over the simple new (malloc/free) allocator and i'd like to avoid reinventing the wheel with yet another pool allocator.
