This is another item taken out of #70.
The current implementation of
deserialize_string_to_i64
first deserializes a JSON value to aString
before attempting to parse it as ani64
value. This requires an intermediate allocation for the string value because it's owned bydeserialize_string_to_i64
. Callingstr::parse
works on a reference too though, so writing a proper serde visitor with the ability to handle ephemeral strings improves performance slightly. It also ensures that the method works for non-JSON deserializers (such as BSON).
