This should help with some of the memory problems reported in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/8436, especially the ones
related to large files (see:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/8436#issuecomment2037442695),
by **reducing the memory required to represent a buffer in Zed by
~50%.**
### How?
Zed's memory consumption is dominated by the in-memory representation of
buffer contents.
On the lowest level, the buffer is represented as a
[Rope](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_(data_structure)) and that's
where the most memory is used. The layers above — buffer, syntax map,
fold map, display map, ... — basically use "no memory" compared to the
Rope.
Zed's `Rope` data structure is itself implemented as [a `SumTree` of
`Chunks`](
