Could you please explain why it does what it does?

comment:2 by jttt, 16 years ago

When you load osm file then some keys are used many times, like source, name, highway etc. Currently every time source key is found then new string is created for it. When patch is applied then all source keys will point to the same object.

String overhead is quite noticable, for example simple "source" will occupy 56 bytes of memory in Java. See
​http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/josm-dev/2009-March/002730.html for benchmark
