Besides, while the raw speed of appending a string maybe the simplest
thing to understand and compare, my FastString class has more advantages
than simply being used as a buffer. It has a long history of use, and
from that history it has gained many tweaks and features making it very
handy and simple to use.
I concur. A couple of months ago, I wrote a FastString replacement in pure
RB (I called it SpeedString), that, in the end, was just as fast as Theo's
FastString.
Still, I ended up continuing to use FastString for exactly the reasons Theo
mentions.
I too am suspicious of the statement about Join, but perhaps I'm overlooking
something. Charles, could you share a simple code example?
