But with that change we don't find out if those tests regress in debug mode :-( I prefer to just add noexcept to the profile mode move constructor, and if it throws then the program terminates. If you run out of memory when using profile mode then terminating seems reasonable to me; I don't think people are using profile mode to test how their programs handle std::bad_alloc. Put another way, if your program runs out of memory *because* of profile mode, then the results of the profiling will not give you useful data about how your program usually behaves. Using profile mode has altered the behaviour of the program. So in that situation simply calling std::terminate() makes sense.
