AW: Proposal: Optimizing Efficiency using Read-only Arrays

[Markus Karg]

Thank you, Kasper.

Actually this is not exactly the same but nearly related: Those two JEPs provide just one specific, possible solution ("freezing", i. e. turning previously writable array into read-only one) to the overall problem. There could be other solutions these JEPs explicitly do not aim: For example, another solution for my proposal is directly creating a read-only constant instead of creating a writable array and then "freezing" it afterwards (which, IIUC, will hold two objects in memory, a still writable one, and a read-only view). The aim of my PR is to discuss the final solution we actually want to go, and when.

-Markus

There are already two draft JEPs for this:
