Description of changes:
Main strategy was turning SingleByteTransition into an Iterable of itself, and then changing many methods that returned Sets to return Iterables, so that in the n=1 case, we can return a SingleByteTransition instead of a single-element set and avoid the set creation. Also, revised updateTransition in ByteMap to work on the same TreeMap instead of creating a replacement.
In my testing, this gives up to a 25% reduction in GC activity, and a 50% reduction in machine creation latency at p99.9.
