Iavor report? My understanding is that the intention is that the
Iavor alphabet is unicode codepoints (sometimes referred to as
Iavor unicode characters).
Unicode characters are not the same as Unicode codepoints. What we want
is Unicode characters.
We don't want to be able to
I actually was not able to successfully google for Text vs. String
benchmarks. If someone can point one out that would be very helpful.

This is the best I can do with Bryan's blog posts, but none of the
