Typically you need 4 pointers to represent a strong reference count for a string view. * One for the start of the source string, with an inline strong count
* One for the end of the source string so you know how much to deallocate (only really applicable to Rust)
* One for the start of the view
* One for the end of the view 32 bytes for each string view is quite a lot. Depending on context you could use 32bit lengths instead of end-pointers if you're OK with <4GB strings, saving 8 bytes. |
