    7171A significant area of confusion for reading C declarations results from embedding a declared variable in a declaration, mimicking the way the variable is used in executable statements.

    4242A centrepriece of the string module is its memory manager.  The managment scheme defines a large shared buffer for strings' text.  Allocation in this buffer is always bump-pointer; the buffer is compacted and/or relocated with growth when it fills.  A string is a smart pointer into this buffer.

    8484There are tradeoffs associated with the copy-on-write mechanism.  Several quatitative matters are detailed in the [xref: Performance Assessment] section and the qualitiative issue of multi-threaded support is introduced here.  The \CFA sting library provides a switch to disable the sharing mechanism for situtations where it is inappropriate.

    109109I assessed the CFA string library's speed and memory usage.  I present these results ineven quivalent cases, due to either micro-optimizations foregone, or fundamental costs of the added functionality.  They also show the benefits and tradeoffs, as >100\% effects, of switching to CFA, with the tradeoff points quantified.  The final test shows the overall win of the CFA text-sharing mechanism.  It exercises several operations together, showing CFA enabling clean user code to achieve performance that STL requires less-clean user code to achieve.
