that I'd like to mention. Does the deque in the Containers library have support for accessing the chunks it uses? Would you be willing to add a function that gives that? Tia.

I think that having a “configurable” deque class template is one of the best things that could be offered by a boost Containers library. I have always wondered why noone wrote a version of the deque class template that allowed the configuration of such things as the page / block size, rather than have it be determined by a compile time formula based on the size of the data type being stored. It would seem to me that the page / block size is one of the more critical pieces affecting the size / speed tradeoffs in a deque’s performance when there are many insertions taking place.
