Hi,
Comparing two int32 values will be much faster than re-allocating a byte
array. If possible, you should avoid re-allocating the buffer in a loop.
Taking StringBuilder for example, it's internally allocating a bigger
enough buffer to hold possible strings that will be appended to it. When
the buffer is not big enough, it will re-allocate a bigger buffer again
(probably double the buffer size), the purpose it to minimize possible
memory re-allocating times. That's why we always recommend to use
StringBuilder if you're repeatedly add strings up.
