3) Is it possible to use boost pool allocators with the BGL? As far

as I can tell the BGL currently performs lots of small allocations -

I'd really like to avoid that for space and runtime efficiency reasons.


BGL does not currently support allocators.  There is a Trac ticket requesting this feature, but I do not believe anyone is working on it.



Pages 232 and 233 of the BGL book provide an example of how to use the container_gen class to specify an allocator type.
