Understanding the unique module in Go 1.23 is an absolute must because it will improve your performance! While this module is interesting, there have been some changes with sorting and timers as well, so feel free to check out this video: https://youtu.be/MVx_b-2TuLY
📝 Description
Go 1.23 is here, and it's bringing some exciting changes! In this video, we'll dive deep into one of the most significant additions: the new unique package. This powerful module offers a significant performance boost for critical comparisons and allows you to canonicalize your data efficiently. Here's what we'll cover:
• Introduction to the unique package and its capabilities
• Understanding handles and their role in optimizing comparisons
• Real-world benchmarks comparing traditional string comparisons to unique.Handle
• A detailed look at memory optimization through canonicalization
• Best practices and when to use (or not use) the unique package
