// Metafunction to compute optimal parameter type for argument forwarding. 

// This header is not an FT example in itself -- it's used by some of them to 
// optimize argument forwarding.

// For more details see 'fast_mem_fn.hpp' in this directory or the documentation
// of the CallTraits utility [1].
