Hello list,

I would like to know if there is any overhead in using singleton_pool 
instead of a simple pool object. Especially, I guess there could be some 
overhead due to synchronisation, as the singleton interface is 
guaranteed to be thread safe.

I currently have some trouble with deallocation order of statics at 
program exit (I am using a static pool object), but everything works 
fine when I use singleton_pool instead.

Are there any disadvantages (runtime) when using singleton_pool?

Thanks!

Julius
