Jake Donham commented on THRIFT-1047:
-------------------------------------

Do you have benchmarking code around this you could share?

I have a theory I'd like to test that an inline typecheck in 
rb_thrift_memory_buffer_write would not adversely affect performance. Something 
like

  if (IMMEDIATE_P(str) || BUILTIN_TYPE(str) != T_STRING)
    Check_Type(str, T_STRING)

because the branch should be predicted correctly and the type field should be 
in the same cache line as the string ptr / length fields.

> rb_thrift_memory_buffer_write treats arg as string without check, segfaults 
> if you pass non-string
