Package: libghc-text-short-prof (0.1.2-5)

memory-efficient representation of Unicode text strings; profiling libraries

This Haskell library provides the 'ShortText' type which is suitable for keeping many short strings in memory. This is similiar to the relationship between 'ShortByteString' and 'ByteString'.

The main differences between 'Text' and 'ShortText' is that 'ShortText' uses UTF-8 instead of UTF-16 internally and 'ShortText' doesn't support zero-copy slicing (thereby saving 2 words). Consequently, the memory footprint of a (boxed) 'ShortText' value is 4 words (2 words when unboxed) plus the length of the UTF-8 encoded payload.

This package provides a library for the Haskell programming language, compiled for profiling. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.
