Subject: Does network data really cons strings?
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2004 22:41:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m37jzwonei.fsf@defun.localdomain> (raw)

I was a bit surprised to see that network data (or any data received
from processes) conses Lisp strings.

Is it just a quirk of `memory-use-counts' or is it for real?  Why does
it need to cons Lisp strings if the data is only inserted in a buffer?
