Or is it too > sparse to be worth doing? radix trees and xarrays have pretty similar behavior related to sparseness or waste of interior nodes due to it. So unless we find a better data structure for it, it would be worthwhile. But the ici radix tree does pretty funny things in terms of also protecting other fields with the lock synchronizing it, so the conversion is fairly complicated and I don't feel like doing it right now, at least no without evaluating if for example a rthashtable might actually be the better data structure here. The downside of the rthashtable is that it doens't support tags/masks and isn't great for iteration, so it might very much not be very suitable.
