Apart from that, if I were to use a thread-safe queue, I would probably use one designed for maximum efficiency using lock-free techniques, rather than one designed in terms of naive locking. Intel TBB provides that kind of thing already; and there had been discussion of integrating TBB into Boost in the past.
It will be rely good tohave TBB included on Boost. I'm not sure Intel is interested in having a portable implementation of TBB. Respect to the fact that there is a discussion, I have not hear too much since a long time. I hope that there are other boosters working on lock-free techniques and that êven if TBB is a good library we could work without. Best, Vicente
