FakeString requires you to call SetCapacity(n + 1), SetLength(n), and then BeginWriting()[n] = char16_t(0). A real string does all this in one call to SetLength(n), and the calls to SetCapacity(n + 1) that are made on real strings could allocate more than necessary.

Proposed patch

>+    if (aLength < sInlineCapacity) {
>       SetData(mInlineStorage);
>     }
>+    else {

else goes up next to the '}'.

r=me with that, though this change will make bug 1025183 a bit more painful....
