 It is already requested may times (e.g. see
 [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18530512/stl-boost-equivalent-of-llvm-

 smallvector]). In programs one uses vector's a lot; unfortunately for
 small containers every time a heady allocation is involved. According to
 stackoverflow ([http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8190950/may-stdvector-

 make-use-of-small-buffer-optimization]), the current standard forbids it.
 But why not make another container class then? We already have:
  - vector
  - stable_vector
  - static_vector
