Yes, the issue is whether the various string operations are lazy or strict. But whether it's possible to implement lazy operations does depend on the type itself. If the type is implemented as just an array of bytes in memory, it would be impossible to do anything lazily, because there's nowhere to store thunks (unevaluated values), only data. |
