Using `new {Name,Cmd}` should be avoided, since it creates a new object on *every* call, whereas `{Name,Cmd}.get` uses caches to only create *one* object regardless of how many times they are called.
Most of these are found in the unit-tests, where increased memory usage probably doesn't matter very much. But it still seems good to get rid of those cases, since no part of the codebase ought to advertise that usage.
Given the small size of the patch, I'm also tweaking a few comments and class names.
When the binary CMaps were added, some of the relevant unit tests were not changed. This patch updates them, so that we actually test the current implementation.
What's somewhat troubling here is that we currently have CMap unit tests that passes, *despite* not working as intended (the CMap files doesn't load).
readCharCode() returns two values, and currently allocates a length-2
array on every call to do so. This change makes it instead us a
passed-in object which can be reused.
This tiny change reduces the total JS allocations done for the document
in Mozilla bug 992125 by 4.2%.
cid chars are 16-bit unsigned integers. Currently we convert them to
single-char strings when inserting them into the CMap, and then convert
them back to integers when extracting them from the CMap. This patch
changes CMap so that cid chars stay in integer format throughout, saving
both time and space.
When loading the PDF from issue #4580, this change reduces peak RSS from
~600 to ~370 MiB. It also improves overall speed on that PDF by ~26%,
going from 724 ms to 533 ms.
