Didn't look through tests yet, but some commentary and fix suggestions.

up - what I mean is that with Allocator support, will the old versions (which do not template allocators) ever be called anymore? Or could they be safely deleted?

What do you think, how much work would it be to test this also with MallocMC? That would be nice to report. :) Also, in case you didn't notice, there's some merge conflicts that still need resolving. |

A few major things still, please.

That's a lot of code duplication :( Couldn't you put the default allocator as the default argument to this templated function? (same thing as in split_tools.h line 104)

Well, in that case there needs to be some other workaround - by default, a vector of a given size has all elements set to zero. This must still hold true for SplitVector. If necessary, you can add:
if (_construct) {
for (size_t i = size(); i < newSize; ++i) {
data[i] = T();
}
}
or something similar, I guess. Ugly, but potentially needs to be done.
Or can you check somehow if the allocator has a construct method? Make an issue about it on the Umpire repo?

IMO the allocator should be the one handling the memory pools.

In general I would like to see less code duplication as that leads to potential issues in future development, having to fix things in several places, but I guess it's out of my hands now :) |

So in this PR there is some pruning in the SplitVector code to enable the use of external allocators such as Umpire. This PR enables Hashinator as well to propagate the allocators to SplitVector. A citation methods has also been added and as well as some changes to the README.
split::split_host_allocatoris not needed anymore an replace withstd::allocatorsizeof(T)is enormous this approach is not efficient, but since Hashinator and SplitVectors are meant to be used with trivial types this is rather unlikely.
