 A compressing dynamic trie (radix tree) structure is used for efficient matching.
 
 ## Features
-**Zero Garbage:** The matching and dispatching process generates zero bytes of garbage. In fact, the only heap allocations that are made, is by building the map containing the variables key-value pairs. If the request path contains no variables, not a single heap allocation is necessary.
