23.12.5 Pool resource classes [mem.res.pool]

23.12.5.2 pool_­options data members [mem.res.pool.options]

The members of pool_­options comprise a set of constructor options for pool resources. The effect of each option on the pool resource behavior is described below:

size_t max_blocks_per_chunk;

The maximum number of blocks that will be allocated at once from the upstream memory resource ([mem.res.monotonic.buffer]) to replenish a pool. If the value of max_­blocks_­per_­chunk is zero or is greater than an implementation-defined limit, that limit is used instead. The implementation may choose to use a smaller value than is specified in this field and may use different values for different pools.

size_t largest_required_pool_block;

The largest allocation size that is required to be fulfilled using the pooling mechanism. Attempts to allocate a single block larger than this threshold will be allocated directly from the upstream memory resource. If largest_­required_­pool_­block is zero or is greater than an implementation-defined limit, that limit is used instead. The implementation may choose a pass-through threshold larger than specified in this field.
