ohair@286 35 * Designates that a field, return value, argument, or a variable is supposed
ohair@286 36 * to be an {@link String#intern() interned} string.
ohair@286 37 *
ohair@286 38 * <p>
ohair@286 39 * In many places in the istack, we assume Strings to be interned for
ohair@286 40 * the performance reason. Similarly, In many other places, we don't
ohair@286 41 * make such an assumption for the performance reason (because intern
ohair@286 42 * isn't free.)
ohair@286 43 *
ohair@286 44 * <p>
ohair@286 45 * Therefore, distinguishing which part is supposed to be interned and
ohair@286 46 * which part is supposed to be not is important. This annotation
ohair@286 47 * allows us to capture that in the code.
