// the slice must be referred to by address;
// using a global is an easy way to trigger that.
// We test the "grow" and "no grow" paths separately,
// but not the "normal" (occasionally grow) path,
// because it is a blend of the other two.
// We use small numbers and small sizes in an attempt
// to avoid benchmarking memory allocation and copying.
// We use scalars instead of pointers in an attempt
// to avoid benchmarking the write barriers.
// We benchmark four common sizes (byte, pointer, string/interface, slice),
// and one larger size.
