+===== Advanced Optimization =====
+Use lambda in place of std::bind to save memory. A std::bind() on a pointer-to-member-function will allocate 24 bytes on the heap for the bind structure. If instead you use a lambda, then this fits into 4 bytes and avoids any allocation.
+Replace:
+    g(this, std::bind(&m_f, this)),
+With:
+    g(this, [this](){this->m_f();}),
+Note that subtle changes to object lifetimes is possible. This code:
+    std::bind(f, std::weak_ptr<Object>(n));
+is not the same as this code:
+    [n]{ f(std::weak_ptr<Object>(n)); }
+The above code will bind the shared_ptr<Node> into the lambda's capture, extending the lifetime.
+But it is the same as this:
+    [wp = std::weak_ptr<Object>(n)]{ f(wp); };
+In this case the lambda's capture only has the weak pointer.
