I believe you're thinking about something far more sophisticated than what I'm suggesting. I'm just talking about a Python data type in a standard library module that trades off slower performance with smaller strings (due to extra method call overhead) against improved scalability (due to avoidance of copying strings around). have you done any benchmarking on this ?
I've benchmarked string copying via slicing against views implemented using buffer(). For certain use patterns, views are absolutely significantly faster.
