Sorry, I meant specifically:

A good one can detect that only a range of allocation is alive and release unused part of someLargeString.

I do agree that ropes are nice, though they may not be acceptable if you want O(1) indexing or slicing.

If you're using a rope representation in a GCed language then you get that for free, no?
