To improve the memory efficiency of to_ascii_uppercase(), I got rid of the ASCII_UPPERCASE_MAP by changing:
ASCII_UPPERCASE_MAP[*self as usize]
to
match *self {
0x61 ... 0x7A => *self - 32,
_ => *self,
}
Unfortunately, this increases the size of libstd (from 10 173 068 to 10 176 204 bytes), and I don’t understand why. When I take the code out of ascii.rs and compile it as a separate cargo projects, the resulting library with my new code is much smaller than the one with the current std code with the static slice.
[details=Minimal library using my new code]```
use std::char;
#[inline]
pub fn to_ascii_uppercase(c: char) -> char {
match c {
‘a’…‘z’ => unsafe { char::from_u32_unchecked(c as u32 - 32) },
_ => c,
}
}
[details=Minimal library copied from std]```
#[inline]
pub fn to_ascii_uppercase(c: char) -> char {
if c as u32 <= 0x7F {
ASCII_UPPERCASE_MAP[c as usize] as char
} else {
c
}
}
