Hello.
Recently a nice modification was done in TString to be optimized for short strings.
However, it looks to me that a feature to set resize increment was removed.
I am using TString to generate C++ source code, and the code can be as large as several MB. The size is not known a priori; I generate the code by adding lines one-by-one.
With ROOT 5.28 or older, I set the increment to be 32k, and it works fine.
On the other hand, I couldn’t find a corresponding function in the new TString; as a consequence, my generation program became 15 times slower.
Is there a method to set the increment for the new TString .
If not, are there some plans to modify TString for the next release to improve performance for long strings ?
(For example, always increase capacity at least twice of current size.)
Best regards,
Ryu
