/**
 * We store the strings in a simple direct-mapped (i.e. no collision handling,
 * just replace) hash, which contain strings or null objects. This costs only
 * 4 bytes per slot on 32-bit archs, so with the default constant size we only
 * really use 40K or so.
 *
 * The end result is that many strings end up pointing to the same underlying data
 * object, instead of each one having its own little copy.
 *
 * More importantly, the way the tryShare function is coded ensures that
 * most-recently inserted text stays in the cache, which gives a better chance
 * of continuing to share data. (Even if something old ("foo") that was shared
 * gets kicked out, all the other "foo"s will still be sharing each other's
 * data.
