Consider a complex key that is a combination of multiple
variables.
struct key
{
int foo = 1;
string bar = "joy";
string baz = "huzza";
}
The value is a very large object.
struct value
{
int[4096] payload;
}
There are 10.000s of different keys.
But typically only ~10 different values.
My first idea was to have an array/set of unique value instances
and store only the index to the array in the key:ed data
structure, this way it's possible to reallocate and extend the
array.
Is there an idiomatic way to solve this in D? Or should I just
get my hands dirty and do the brute force implementation of the
above idea?
