Subject: [PATCH] improve string find algorithm
Here is an improved version of basic_string::find. The idea is to
split the string find in two parts:
1. search for the first match by using traits_type::find (this gets converted
to memchr for x86)
2. see if there is a match (this gets converted to memcmp for x86)
Passes bootstrap on x86-64.
The patch results in good improvements on a synthetic test case I wrote using
the google-benchmark.
following are the results.
