We are talking about making an array with unique elements here. You cannot know the correct capacity for that without overallocating.
If overallocating is indeed OK for your usecase, then you can do so yourself
uniq := make([]MyObject, 0, len(my_objects))
- stouset 2y agoI was talking more in the general case. Yes, you can always just write more and more and more code to fix these things. Or you could just… not write more code and still get optimal performance.
- porridgeraisin 2y ago> just... Not write more code But the abstractions don't really adapt themselves to be performant in each usecase the way you imagine. I gave an example of c# distinct() above. Sure, they can. But do they? No. They only save anything at all for trivial usecases, where the imperative code is also obvious to parse.
