  Description     : library of C++11 components designed with practicality and efficiency in mind
 
 It complements (as opposed to competing against) offerings such as Boost
 and of course std. In fact, we embark on defining our own component only
 when something we need is either not available, or does not meet the needed
 performance profile.
 Performance concerns permeate much of Folly, sometimes leading to designs
 that are more idiosyncratic than they would otherwise be (see e.g.
 PackedSyncPtr.h, SmallLocks.h). Good performance at large scale is a
 unifying theme in all of Folly.
