I am a young member of the Boost family, but my feeling is that this would have been a reason to reject the design in the past. Designing abstractions that enable users to get maximum performance if they want it is a core value of C++.
Actually, some of the oldest Boost libraries have (had) atrocious
performance. Early Boost libraries were often more concerned with how
to do something at all (within the limitations of C++03) than with how
to do it efficiently.
