On the documentation you say " Some of these numbers can get huge, making copying an expensive proposition, and even move semantics (at least as emulated by Boost.Move at the time of this writing) aren't as fast"
Why do you say on Boost.Move is not as fast as COW?
Because it isn't. I ran some tests when I added Boost.Move to it, and copy-on-write is measurably faster than (emulated) move semantics, by about the same amount that emulated move semantics are faster than not having either. I'm hoping that compiler-supported move semantics will be equal to copy-on-write, but until they're widely available, copy-on-write is better. - -- Chad Nelson Oak Circle Software, Inc. * * * -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkvdsC8ACgkQp9x9jeZ9/wQSywCgviSixRsdhhm1Z6jR6c0bkAvw 1U8AnAoMV19ANV+w/9xOsFzWfJGnvgwW =zhNO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
