I am not the best person to try that, as I typically don't use Emacs for
hours at a time and am not really a power user in the traditional sense.
Furthermore, counting all calls isn't what is wanted here: we want to
count just calls that copy strings unnecessarily.
I take your point that the patch is only a minor performance improvement
in the big picture. And although the patch does simplify the Emacs
source code, that's minor too. (Should I propose only major changes from
now on? :-)
