The only think that STL bloat is the "code" and not always ( like all
templates ). Having say that I largelly accept a code bloath of few
hundreads bytes instead of reinvent the well each time you need a list,
or you shall implement a sort. I'm sad to see however people talking
or writing about C++ performances or memory requirements without even
have write a single line of C++ code. Alway in situation like this
I to read a couple of book or article about templates:
"Modern C++ Design: Generic Programming and Design Patterns Applied "
and most of all the capabilities of this library:

May be I had an over reaction ( excuse me ) but this week is not the
first ( also out of this list ) talking against C++.
