Obligatary on-topic comment: seems like a lot of code for a not a lot of result; I would like to see templates (with optional template parms) used to provide the 'usual' values. (yes I know templates aren't C, but you can use them minimalistically since they're orthogonal to the rest of C++.)

Digression comment: Has anyone used GWAN? It looks awesome, but the website hints at some eccentricity. http://gwan.com/

ahahah "eccentricity" best adjective craftsmanship ever...

looks like a cool idea but i feel like hardware-optimization stuff will be wrapped into server OS eventually if its meant to be (I'm sure it already is in some ways). If you want to be cutting edge tho give it a shot?

eheh so impressed with "eccentric" tho. it's funny i love Clojure & i feel like its a bunch of "eccentric" vibing trying to tame itself into something that looks like trendy web sites (Rails community kinda pages, though in Rails it seems there is a flashy site for practically every popular gem whereas in Clojure the biggest thought they're willing to formulate is some real minimal framework)

Here's a review of GWAN:

Not very positive.

> From the site (which seems to disallow copy-paste):

>> The next time someone feels the need to publicly call G-WAN's (1-page) license "weird" or "insane", look at what they sell and who they get their revenues from. Unlike for G-WAN, what they offer is not free for all.

> They have redefined the word 'free' into a fine mist if they expect you to believe Apache and nginx are not free. They're doing something I've seen done before; oddly, it was mainly being done by Usenet trolls.
