There is no option to customize the way Boost.Pool allocates memory. This is a question which is asked more often though. There is also a patch to set a max size (see https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2696). As Boost.Pool wasn't changed for quite some time though I'm not sure if the maintainer is busy or the library has no maintainer?

https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/report/15 gives a list of libraries and maintainers. It shows that Chris Newbold is now maintaining the pool library. (IIRC, he took over in the last few months). -- Marshall
