Ha ha ha.  Things I shouldn't hear :)

Ok.  It's a good point and I agree.  But:
- Allocation with operator new (size_t, xmm const &) will still be faster
than:
    - an extra allocation for a counter;
    - amortized allocations in pool (maybe this is a negligible fact but
still is a fact :).
- How do you assert base classes have virtual destructors?

I think there is a solution for this one...  It's not over :)
