gollark: The small string optimization stuff basically just runs on storing short ones on the stæck and not hæp.

gollark: You don't need to copy to substringize a length-prefixed string. You just create a new string struct thing with a different pointer and smaller length backed by the same memory.
gollark: If you don't mind damaging the original string, sure?
gollark: O(n) is slower than O(1).
