Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: gag...@debian.org * Package name : rust-compact-str Version : 0.7.1 Upstream Contact: Parker Timmerman <par...@parkertimmerman.com> * URL : https://github.com/ParkMyCar/compact_str * License : MIT Programming Lang: Rust Description : A memory efficient string type that can store up to 24 bytes on the stack
A CompactString is a more memory efficient string type, that can store smaller strings on the stack, and transparently stores longer strings on the heap (aka a small string optimization). It can mostly be used as a drop in replacement for String and are particularly useful in parsing, deserializing, or any other application where you may have smaller strings. This is a dependency needed for python-orjson [1]. [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1002996
