scc@mozilla.org 0355112f5a reduce bloat by not chunk-allocating strings (in |nsStr::Alloc|). Clients that don't benefit from this can explicitly call |SetCapacity|. We may re-introduce this functionality in the append of a single character when no space remains, if it turns out to be a problem. This optimization was suggested by profiling done by sfraser, who now promises to find out where it hurts us.

In an assignment, |SetLength(0); SetLength(newLength);| so that the implementation won't bother to copy any old characters if allocation is required. Fiddled with inlining to reduce bloat ... more experiments needed.
