- uvector, storablevector and vector are all designed for dealing with arrays. They *can* be used for characters/word8s but are not specialized for that purpose, do not deal with Unicode at all, and are probably worse at it. They are better for dealing with things that you would generally use arrays for.
I think uvector only works with certain types that can be unboxed, while storablevector works with all types that instantiate Foreign.Storable.Storable. I don't know about vector. From the description of vector, I have the impression that it is quite unstable. How is it compared to uvector and storablevector? I need one of those to work with my code to possibly improve the efficiency. But I can't use uvector, because I can't use unboxed types. Should I use storablevector? Or vector?
