Yup. I applaud your efforts, but it does come with a slight overhead,
except where it replaces faulty code. In practice, it's probably
better
to use the api for all the string-handling, as none of it is
performance-
critical.
Have any performance numbers been posted yet? I thought some had and
that they showed pretty much no statistically-significant difference
(or maybe I'm thinking of David's pack-index patch...)
Performance is a very important question (given that Git is self-
described as a "Fast Version Control System"), but right after it
come the questions of maintainability and robustness: if the string
API makes the code easier to read (better maintainability) and harder
to make mistakes (more robust) then that needs to be weighed up
against the performance changes (if any can be measured).
