/**
* SECTION:string_chunks
* @title: String Chunks
* @short_description: efficient storage of groups of strings
*
* String chunks are used to store groups of strings. Memory is
* allocated in blocks, and as strings are added to the #GStringChunk
* they are copied into the next free position in a block. When a block
* is full a new block is allocated.
*
* When storing a large number of strings, string chunks are more
* efficient than using g_strdup() since fewer calls to malloc() are
* needed, and less memory is wasted in memory allocation overheads.
*
* By adding strings with g_string_chunk_insert_const() it is also
* possible to remove duplicates.
*
* To create a new #GStringChunk use g_string_chunk_new().
*
* To add strings to a #GStringChunk use g_string_chunk_insert().
*
* To add strings to a #GStringChunk, but without duplicating strings
* which are already in the #GStringChunk, use
* g_string_chunk_insert_const().
*
* To free the entire #GStringChunk use g_string_chunk_free(). It is
* not possible to free individual strings.
