Niche filling opportunity if len's alignment is less than T's alignment
Specifically, I have an ArrayVec<core::task::Waker, 15>
. Waker
is two pointers, and len
is 32 bits. On 64-bit platforms, in theory, Option<ArrayVec<...>>
could have the same size.
But padding cannot be used to hold discriminants unless you explicitly allocate said padding.
I think this would require some compile-time selection based on the alignment of T. Not urgent, but something I noticed when examining code generation.
