It's not, that's why I included the standard deviation and min/max as well.
boost::fast_pool_allocator is not intended to be used with std::vector. You're averaging many cases for which it is documented to behave badly with a couple of cases for which it is fine.
That's correct. I was asked to compare with boost::pool_allocator, boost::fast_pool_allocator, std::allocator and tbb::allocator.
The individual tests are okay, but I don't think that it's particularly meaningful to average these very different tests even if you include the standard deviation. I doubt that they are anywhere close a resembling a random sample of actual usage. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
