// ============================================================================
//   During profiling, we have a very predictable access pattern: we only
// append to the end of the container. We can specialize and outperform both
// std::vector (which must realloc) and std::deque (which performs a double
// indirection), and this class of operation is sufficiently important to the
// profiling hot path to warrant specializing:

// AppendOnlyList has 2x lower emplace overhead compared to more generic STL
// containers.
//
//   The optimal value of `ChunkSize` will vary by use case, but testing shows
// that a value of 1024 does a good job amortizing the `malloc` cost of growth.
// Performance drops off for larger values, so testing on a case-by-case basis
// is recommended if performance is absolutely critical.
