当启用c++ 11时，std::vector性能回归
当我启用c++ 11时，我在一个小的c++代码片段中发现了一个有趣的性能回归:
#include <vector>
struct Item
{
int a;
int b;
};
int main()
{
const std::size_t num_items = 10000000;
std::vector<Item> container;
container.reserve(num_items);
for (std::size_t i = 0; i < num_items; ++i) {
container.push_back(Item());
}
return 0;
}
使用g++ (GCC) 4.8.2 20131219(预发布)和c++ 03我得到:
milian:/tmp$ g++ -O3 main.cpp && perf stat -r 10 ./a.out

另一方面，当c++ 11启用时，性能会显著下降:
milian:/tmp$ g++ -std=c++11 -O3 main.cpp && perf stat -r 10 ./a.out
Performance counter stats for './a.out' (10 runs):

798 page-faults # 0.009 M/sec ( +- 8.54% )
237,982,690 cycles # 2.752 GHz ( +- 0.41% ) [51.32%]
<not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend
<not supported> stalled-cycles-backend

4,188 branch-misses # 0.01% of all branches ( +- 7.59% ) [74.08%]
0.087016724 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.50% )
有人能解释一下吗?到目前为止，我的经验是，通过启用c++ 11, STL变得更快，特别是由于移动语义。
编辑:正如建议的那样，使用container.emplace_back();来代替，性能与c++ 03版本相当。c++ 03版本如何为push_back实现相同的功能?
