Do you have hard numbers about how much the user of iterator_facade affects compilation speed? Honest question -- I also find it unfortunate that compilation time is not a priority for Boost.
- Volodya
I second that -- I am quite curious about how much overhead various headers/libraries impose when you include tham, and when you actually use them (which seems to be a lot more expensive on msvc). Quick compile-test-correct cycles are important to me. I don't know the best way to even measure this. In my code path and iterator_facade are both used a lot in my own interfaces and if they are costing me significant build time I will switch to just string/std::iterator in my headers. -- John
