thoughts on StringView library
I'm pondering the actual usefulness of this addition to the new compilers. Today, with higher UProc speeds and memory now available in GB instead of KBytes, I wonder how much StringView will add to a programs efficiency. A few strings being copied won't really effect how much memory is being used with todays memory. I don't think that it will be much faster especially in smaller programs. Maybe a DB program could use it since it stores so much data that probably gets copied a lot. The idea of not making string copies, but using references instead, is quite intriguing, but is it overkill?
