My experience is that we are better of with 2 pointers
Supposedly pointer + size allows better codegen on some compilers. The fact that it was designed like so by people from LLVM which have a ridiculously important focus on performance of their data structures (to the point of mostly rewriting the whole STL with slightly different algorithms better tuned to their use cases) is to be taken into consideration.
Without concrete examples, I have no idea how to take that into consideration. -- Nevin ":-)" Liber <mailto:nevin@eviloverlord.com> (847) 691-1404
