Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the immediate return first of all.

Or continue using boost 1_47, I guess from ublas perspective the results 
would be the same. I use MTL4 generally for my operations however to 
assemble some FE system matrices generalized_vector_of_vector was the 
fastest option and I build my interface classes with this container so I 
would like to stay with that for the moment. One more question, any 
further and faster alternatives to this path?

You mean some different implementations such as sgi or so, well up to 
now I have always depend on standard so I will see what I can do.

Thanks a lot,
Umut
