Re: vector<> can probably never grow to it's maximum size!

In my opinion, you cannot *always* consider growing 1-item-at-a-time only

of the user, that knows nothing about memory and so on, the vector is growing slowly and since you are catching the exceptions he cannot know why.


Hmmm. The user may also start wondering why the vector is performing so
many copies.

Which copies?
