When the number of elements is a lot smaller than the number of buckets
this function can be very inefficient as it has to search through empty
buckets for the next element, in order to return the iterator.

<para>
When the number of elements is a lot smaller than the number of buckets
this function can be very inefficient as it has to search through empty
buckets for the next element, in order to return the iterator.
The method <methodname>quick_erase</methodname> is faster, but has yet
to be standardized.

On compilers without rvalue references, there is a single assignment

When the number of elements is a lot smaller than the number of buckets
this function can be very inefficient as it has to search through empty
buckets for the next element, in order to return the iterator.

to be standardized.
