Summary
Implement delta-compressed token storage to reduce memory usage by 58% for sourcemaps with millions of tokens.
Motivation
As requested by the user, sourcemaps can have millions of tokens, consuming significant memory. This PR implements delta compression to store tokens more efficiently while maintaining the same public API.
Implementation
CompressedTokens Structure
Encoding Format
Results
Memory Savings
Performance Trade-offs
The performance regression is due to decompression overhead. This is acceptable for:
Testing
Alternative Approach
If the performance trade-off is too high, the simpler
Box<[Token]>optimization (commit 86cb878) provides 8 bytes savings per SourceMap with zero performance impact.Breaking Changes
None - the API remains unchanged. The compression is an internal implementation detail.
