📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe runtime now uses cached strings for small numeric coercions and formats eligible small integers inline during string concatenation. Other numeric inputs retain the existing formatting and dynamic addition paths. ChangesRuntime string conversion
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to Heap-string concatenation can retain an invalid source view across an allocation, potentially producing corrupted strings or a runtime crash. This correctness risk should be fixed before the PR is merged. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Full details: Title checkExplanation The title clearly identifies both runtime optimizations: small-integer caching for String() coercion and itoa formatting for string concatenation. It is specific and directly related to the main changes. Full details: Description checkExplanation The description provides detailed context, implementation changes, benchmarks, and correctness results. However, it does not follow the repository template: it omits the required Summary, Changes, Related issue, Test plan, Screenshots / output, and Checklist sections. Resolution Reformat the description to use the required template headings. Add a Summary, Changes list, Related issue value such as "n/a", Test plan with the applicable commands and checked results, and the required Checklist items. Keep the existing benchmark and correctness details under the relevant sections.

each source JSValue rooted across the allocation and reload its heap-string byte

Root and reload heap-string operands before concatenation.
Lines 180 and 185 pass a raw heap-string payload view into concat_byte_parts. That function allocates before it copies the view. If the string exceeds SSO size, this allocation can relocate its StringHeader, and the subsequent copy reads a stale pointer.
Keep the source JSValue rooted and reload its byte view after allocation, or copy the source bytes into owned storage before allocation.
Based on learnings: a byte view from a heap string is invalid across any allocation or GC cycle.
Also applies to: 185-185

…eger operands in js_string_concat_box String(n) for a regular number now delegates to js_number_to_string, whose SMALL_INT_CACHE answers 0..255 with an interned longlived string and no allocation; the fallback is the same shared js_format_f64, so output is bit-identical on every input. js_string_concat_box (the template-literal pairwise concat) previously punted ANY non-string operand to js_dynamic_string_or_number_add — a full ToPrimitive round trip plus format! formatting per op. An integral plain-f64 operand in 0..=999_999_999 (fract()==0, NaN-box tag check excludes boxed values and negatives via the sign bit) is now itoa'd into a stack buffer and flows through the same SSO/heap byte-assembly as the two-string case. itoa and Number::toString print that range identically; every other value — fractional, negative, huge, NaN-boxed — keeps the dynamic arm, and number+number pairs never enter the fast path (one side must still be a real string), so the annotation-lie semantics are unchanged.

What
Two surgical runtime changes on the string-concat hot paths:
String(n)routes through the small-int cache.js_string_coerce's regular-number arm formatted every number with theformat!machinery. It now delegates tojs_number_to_string, whoseSMALL_INT_CACHEanswersString(i)for 0..255 with an interned longlived string and no allocation; the fallback is the same sharedjs_format_f64(runtime/string: align ToString, String wrappers, indexed reads, and extra-arg calls #3987 scientific-notation semantics), so output is bit-identical on every input.js_string_concat_boxitoas integral number operands. The pairwise (template-literal) concat punted ANY non-string operand tojs_dynamic_string_or_number_add— a full ToPrimitive round trip plusformat!per op. An integral plain-f64 operand in0..=999_999_999(fract()==0; the NaN-box tag check excludes boxed values, and the sign bit excludes negatives and -0) is now itoa'd into a stack buffer and flows through the same SSO/heap byte-assembly as the two-string case. itoa andNumber::toStringprint that range identically; fractional / negative / huge / NaN-boxed operands keep the dynamic arm, and number+number pairs never enter (one side must still be a real string), so the annotation-lie semantics are unchanged.Measurements
