Details

From smaug:

"happen to know if anyone has tried to tweak JS::CopyStringChars so that it wouldn't call StringToLinearString, but just copy directly to the output buffer?"

It seems worth an experiment; we have StringSegmentRange specificially to handle rope walking.

(arguably a heuristic about copy frequency would make sense, but an initial cut could still work)
