## What it is
A minimal (~300 line) C++11 header-only thread pool that accepts variadic functions and lambdas and returns std::future results. It features a bounded task queue with backpressure, optional auto-growing threads with idle reclamation, and exception safety.

## Use cases
- run tasks concurrently with a thread pool in C++
- submit lambdas with arbitrary arguments and get results via futures
- limit concurrent worker threads with a bounded task queue
- auto-scale thread count and reclaim idle threads
- learn C++11 concurrency idioms like packaged_task and condition_variable

## When to choose
- you need a tiny, dependency-free C++11 thread pool
- you want variadic task submission with future return values
- you need backpressure via a bounded queue
- you want a readable implementation to study C++11 threading

## When to avoid
- you need advanced features like work stealing, priorities, or cancellation
- you need direct support for class member functions without bind/mem_fn
- your tasks submit and wait on subtasks in the same pool (deadlock risk)
- you need a production-grade pool with extensive tuning and metrics
