Instead of re-implementing
memorySize
in every_base
class, I can provide a shared default-implementation for it using a Swift protocolextension
.I found this out by accident by talking to ChatGPT about dynamic dispatch in Swift.
This is statically resolved at compile-time if it isn't overridden, so it's also more performant.
Warning
If anyone uses
memorySize
, they just need to remove theoverride
keyword.
