New issue 3383 by philippe.marschall: [FIX] make String >> #subStrings: do
less allocation
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3383
String >> #subStrings: does a lot of allocation. It allocates a new string
for almost every character. So if you do something
like '/alongUrl/withaPathElement/andSomethingMore' subStrings: '/' about
forty strings are allocated. This can easily be avoided using write streams.
The method could probably be made even faster by using
#indexOfSubCollection:startingAt: and just copying with the correct size.
I will post a patch but I first need an issue number that I can reference.
