# Description This adds a `SharedCow` type as a transparent copy-on-write pointer that clones to unique on mutate. As an initial test, the `Record` within `Value::Record` is shared. There are some pretty big wins for performance. I'll post benchmark results in a comment. The biggest winner is nested access, as that would have cloned the records for each cell path follow before and it doesn't have to anymore. The reusability of the `SharedCow` type is nice and I think it could be used to clean up the previous work I did with `Arc` in `EngineState`. It's meant to be a mostly transparent clone-on-write that just clones on `.to_mut()` or `.into_owned()` if there are actually multiple references, but avoids cloning if the reference is unique. # User-Facing Changes - `Value::Record` field is a different type (plugin authors) # Tests + Formatting - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib` # After Submitting - [ ] use for `EngineState` - [ ] use for `Value::List` |

nu-protocol
The nu-protocol crate holds the definitions of structs/traits that are used throughout Nushell. This gives us one way to expose them to many other crates, as well as make these definitions available to each other, without causing mutually recursive dependencies.
