/* The blob functions implement a simple, low-level API for serializing and
39
* All objects written to a blob will be serialized directly, (without any
40
* additional meta-data to describe the data written). Therefore, it is the
41
* caller's responsibility to ensure that any data can be read later, (either
42
* by knowing exactly what data is expected, or by writing to the blob
43
* sufficient meta-data to describe what has been written).
45
* A blob is efficient in that it dynamically grows by doubling in size, so
46
* allocation costs are logarithmic.

/* The data actually written to the blob. Never read or write this directly
51
