My recollection is that parts of Boost (possibly the parser module?)  
are implemented in a templated way that can cause quite amazing code  
size increases. This was the reason for not using it in another  
project I was involved with, a couple of years ago. It may well be  
that improvements in compiler code-gen for templates have fixed this -  
or more likely, the issues is in parts of Boost that won't be touched.
