DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Sebastian Dröge (Centricular Ltd)\nGStreamer's `Gst
 Structure` is using `GQuark`s for the string name and field names. `GQuark
 ` is an API for uniquely representing a string by an integer\, and while t
 his property has some theoretical performance advantages it also comes wit
 h various disadvantages that cause problems in practice.\n\nIn this lightn
 ing talk I will explain these problems\, and present a solution for this\,
  which doesn't require API changes and doesn't have any relevant performan
 ce impact.\n\nhttps://indico.freedesktop.org/event/9/contributions/322/
