Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Well, of course most words in most languages are below 20 characters. Hence most strings containing words are also below 20 chars. But strings can also contain whole lines (e.g. decoding of various Internet protocols), which are statistically below 80 chars. I took that into account in the freelists patch (it keeps lots of <15 char strings in memory, and a few <90 char strings), which as you can see still yields rather little benefits :)
