More often than not, if we need to copy when matching, we're potentially wasting free capacity at the end of the existing
parts
slice. Instead of allocating a whole new slice, attempt to reuse that capacity. If it overflows into a reallocation then that's not the end of the world, as there should now be more available capacity for the next iteration too.This is safe to do as in the
match
function,parts
is not modified at any point before the next call tomatchParts
, therefore unused capacity is not going to be overwritten.Signed-off-by: Neil Twigg [email protected]
