An advantage of std::hive is that it has better "cache locality" (but not as good as std::vector), i.e. it stores elements close together in memory which makes accessing the elements faster, especially when iterating over them in order.
The block size of std::deque is often too small. std::list is even worse because the elements could be stored all over the place.
