Great. Does that mean we can still perform awesomely in the case of
core PMCs? Do you think we're going to run into similar issues with any
Yes, it still perform fast. And after reducing GC pressure in last 2 commits
it ~10% faster than before on benchmark_test.
other PMCs changed by the branch?
Yes. For example BigInt. I'll rework it fallback to MMD in default case.
I think that current VTABLE/MUTLI/METHOD interactions is inconsistent and have
to be re-worked... I agree with chromatic++ comment#1 in ticket - "In the
long term, making VTABLE calls multidispatch themselves will actually reduce
the amount of code in the system.".
