 Good comparisons of different API-usage patterns are hard to come by.

Milan Straka compared containers to a number of other libraries (including
some of those you mentioned) and found them all to be slower. Since
unordered-containers is faster (or sometimes as fast) as containers I
haven't really bothered comparing it to libraries other than containers.
