/// fast as just the pointers need to be compared. It also allows for many
/// common strings from many different sources to be shared to keep the memory
/// footprint low.
///
/// No reference counting is done on strings that are added to the string
/// pool, once strings are added they are in the string pool for the life of
/// the program.
