I've not looked into the details about why malloc() was being called yet,
as I've investigated different solutions to the situation I have at hand.
If time permits I will look into custom allocators for Boost.Function,
however it will not be in the near future.

Thanks for your response Andrey, and apologies for not getting back sooner.
