Hi Ion,
I see that your string implementation has a small buffer optimisation (SBO). Have you tried to benchmark this, and/or any of the other design decisions? I vaguely recall that libc++ may have done some measurements but I can't find anything now.
I havent' measured it thoroughly. It's based on the same ideas libc++ uses, and I have no other non-SBO implementation to compare. Maybe an easy task is to compare this string with other standard libraries that use SBO.
Also, have you considered adding e.g. a ctor that takes a std::string, for interoperability? (I guess the same could be asked for the other types.)
That might be a good addition if there is consensus for that. You can just use target.assign(src.begin(), src.end()) but I think the constructor could optimize some conversions, like ordered containers. Ion
