Hi,

I have a use case where we need to create, use and destroy a relatively large number of QSharedPointers rapidly. To avoid the malloc overhead it would be nice to be able to use a pool of QSharedPointers.

We have QSharedPointer::create() which is analogous to std::make_shared() that allows to reduce creating a QSharedPointer and the object it points at to a single memory allocation.

However, this uses operator new internally. I can't see any equivalent of std::allocate_shared() which would allow the use of a custom allocator for the QSP and object memory allocation.

Does anybody have any plans to add such a facility? Or is there some other facility to avoid operator new here for both the QSP and the object itself?

Thanks,

Sean
