[Boost-users] [Interprocess] create a managed_mapped_file without allocator mutex?

I'm using managed_mapped_file to hold an index for a small property database. In various operations of boost ::interprocess::rbtree_best_fit the process frequently blocks on boost::interprocess::interprocess_mutex::lock I synchronize all access to this file using interprocess mutex utilities, so write access is restricted to one single-threaded process at a time. I have looked for a deadlock between my outer mutex and the allocator's mutex, but I haven't been able to detect any process blocking on my mutex. It also might be that a process crashes while holding the allocator mutex, but in that case I don't know how to flush the allocators mutex (like I can with my own). I'm wondering if I need the allocator mutex at all, since I provide synchronization at a higher level. Is it possible to create a: typedef basic_managed_mapped_file< char,rbtree_best_fit< mutex_family

,iset_index > managed_mapped_file; That uses some kind of no-op mutex family? Can anyone give me a hint how to declare such a thing? Thanks much for any advice, Andy
