// Design rationale
// ================
//
// Using a profiler to observe size distributions for calls into libc
// functions, it was found most operations act on a small number of bytes.
// This makes it important to favor small sizes.
//
// The tests for `count` are in ascending order so the cost of branching is
// proportional to the cost of copying.
//
// The function is written in C++ for several reasons:
// - The compiler can __see__ the code, this is useful when performing Profile
// Guided Optimization as the optimized code can take advantage of branching
// probabilities.
// - It also allows for easier customization and favors testing multiple
// implementation parameters.
// - As compilers and processors get better, the generated code is improved
// with little change on the code side.
