  \brief Simple Segregated Storage.
  \details A simple segregated storage implementation:
  simple segregated storage is the basic idea behind the Boost Pool library.
  Simple segregated storage is the simplest, and probably the fastest,
  memory allocation/deallocation algorithm.
  It begins by partitioning a memory block into fixed-size chunks.
  Where the block comes from is not important until implementation time.
  A Pool is some object that uses Simple Segregated Storage in this fashion.

/*! 

\brief Simple Segregated Storage is the simplest, and probably the fastest,
memory allocation/deallocation algorithm.  It is responsible for
partitioning a memory block into fixed-size chunks: where the block comes from 
is determined by the client of the class.

\details Template class simple_segregated_storage controls access to a free list of memory chunks. 
Please note that this is a very simple class, with preconditions on almost all its functions. It is intended to 
be the fastest and smallest possible quick memory allocator - e.g., something to use in embedded systems. 
This class delegates many difficult preconditions to the user (i.e., alignment issues).

An object of type simple_segregated_storage<SizeType>  is empty  if its free list is empty. 
If it is not empty, then it is ordered  if its free list is ordered. A free list is ordered if repeated calls 
to <tt>malloc()</tt> will result in a constantly-increasing sequence of values, as determined by <tt>std::less<void *></tt>. 
A member function is <i>order-preserving</i> if the free list maintains its order orientation (that is, an 
ordered free list is still ordered after the member function call).
