@niksnut:matrix.orgEelco learned today that using std::string for large buffers is very inefficient (huge kernel overhead): https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-src/pull/238/commits/edf45d6e1158a059e7ded5460d2a3947dc35fdf8 20:44:48
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)This is sort of more about doing unnecessary construction/destruction of an object. Not special to std::string in any way20:55:40
