Make printing faster by avoiding mallocs and some other advances.
Roughly 33% faster for simple cases, probably more for complex ones. Before: mallocs per Sprintf(""): 4 mallocs per Sprintf("xxx"): 6 mallocs per Sprintf("%x"): 10 mallocs per Sprintf("%x %x"): 12 Now: mallocs per Sprintf(""): 2 mallocs per Sprintf("xxx"): 3 mallocs per Sprintf("%x"): 5 mallocs per Sprintf("%x %x"): 7 Speed improves because of avoiding mallocs and also by sharing a bytes.Buffer between print.go and format.go rather than copying the data back after each printed item. Before: fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfEmpty 1000000 1346 ns/op fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfString 500000 3461 ns/op fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfInt 500000 3671 ns/op Now: fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfEmpty 2000000 995 ns/op fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfString 1000000 2745 ns/op fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfInt 1000000 2391 ns/op fmt_test.BenchmarkSprintfIntInt 500000 3751 ns/op I believe there is more to get but this is a good milestone.
