Irks me to no end that this question seeks to judge my abilities as a C++ developer, yet it cannot even be assed to use move semantics when copying freaking vectors around or to use std::vector<>::emplace_back() when inserting strings into a vector. or how about instead of copying all of these strings by value, you simply break them up using std::string_view?

So you're essentially judging the speed at which I can decimate the heap. Nice.
