Following the recent inclusion in the stdlib (as part of the new Type module) of
Type.Id.uid
, it looks like we can always compute a unique integer for type ids.This PR proposes to use this function to: 1) avoid computing
uid
s separately and storing them along type ids; 2) index the underlying map with uids instead of indexing it using keys (that then need to be boxed).I think this should avoid the allocations mentioned in issue #2, although using a different approach than what is suggested there?
