Hi Ion,

I see that your string implementation has a small buffer optimisation 
(SBO).  Have you tried to benchmark this, and/or any of the other 
design decisions?  I vaguely recall that libc++ may have done some 
measurements but I can't find anything now.

Also, have you considered adding e.g. a ctor that takes a std::string, 
for interoperability?  (I guess the same could be asked for the other types.)

Phil.
