Introduce a
SwitchInt
and restructure pattern matching to collect integers and characters into one master switch. This is aimed at #29227, but is not a complete fix. Whereas before we generated an if-else-if chain and, at least on my machine, just failed to compile, we now spend ~9sec compilingrustc_abuse
. AFAICT this is basically just due to a need for more micro-optimization of the matching process: perf shows a fair amount of time just spent iterating over the candidate list. Still, it seemed worth opening a PR with this step alone, since it's a big step forward.
