btw, François, for profile mode I think we should just do something
like this patch.
I feel quite strongly that if using Debug Mode or Profile Mode makes
your program run out of memory where it wouldn't usually fail, then
terminating is reasonable. The point of Profile Mode is not to test
abnormal execution of your program because that won't give you useful
profile information for the normal case.
It's more important for the noexcept specification to be consistent
across normal/debug/profile modes than for profile mode to fail
gracefully via bad_alloc in out-of-memory scenarios.
Sure, no problem. In the patch I am preparing for profile mode
failure in allocation will just mean that the involved container won't
be profiled so that I can add noexcept wherever it is needed for
consistency with normal mode. I hope to be able to submit this patch in
a week or two.
