Subject: profile results for new UT_* implementations?

Hi folks,
In wading through the sources today looking at all those leaks, I realized
how substantially the codebase had changed due to the pre-0.9.0
(re-)implementations of:
strings
hash tables (now renamed, right?)
ref-counted objects
It's obviously not time to revisit those design decisions, but I was
wondering if anyone could point me at the relevant design threads to help me
get up to speed on the rationale behind the new implementations of such very
fundamental data structures.
In particular, I'd love to see the profile results which showed that we've
gotten better time/space tradeoffs than we had with the older Jeff-style
code I was familiar with. (Or are Martin's view-level rewrites responsible
for all the speedups?)
Thanks! :-)
Paul,
conservative old-timer
