Description

I'm running tests under DrMemory to find leaks, and find that the builtin leak detection interferes with that so I'd like to turn it off. I've tried

set BOOST_DETECT_MEMORY_LEAK=0

which hides the output, but the process still spends a minute below `_CrtDumpMemoryLeaks` during shutdown, after printing results. Running under DrMemory, that often extends to an hour, causing timeouts.

I'd expect VS based memory leak debugging to be disabled completely in this case.
