Fix: ruby#293 BigDecimal is a very good fit for embedded objects, as most of them are small, and they're all immutable, so they don't need any resizing. In most case it results in smaller objects, but also reduces pointer chasing as well as make these objects faster to free for the GC. master: ```ruby >> ObjectSpace.memsize_of(BigDecimal("422343434234234234234234234234423")) => 92 >> ObjectSpace.memsize_of(BigDecimal("4223434342342342342342342342344232342423423")) => 96 ``` This branch: ```ruby >> ObjectSpace.memsize_of(BigDecimal("422343434234234234234234234234423")) => 80 >> ObjectSpace.memsize_of(BigDecimal("4223434342342342342342342342344232342423423")) => 160 ```
