`StringBuilder` is a utility shared across the entire project:
Appender not good enough; at least in terms of allocating
memory and accumulating a string?
`Appender` is a legitimate option, but unless it is provided
with a good estimate of the final length at the beginning, it
will allocate several times for a longer string, and the final
buffer will be, on average, 50% larger than needed.
Neither of these things is a major problem, but `StringBuilder`
is only a few lines of code to perfectly minimize allocation,
so why not?
Thanks a lot. One needs to go twice through the serialization,
but perhaps thats better than reallocing memory.
Kind regards,
