Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Core (C code) Group: Python 2.6 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Mike Klaas (mklaas) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Performance boost for array repeat Initial Comment: Copy in exponentially-increasing sized chunks when performing array repeat. This enables fast initialization of large arrays. Performance is about an order of magnitude increase for single-element arrays, and about two orders of magnitude faster for single-element character arrays (see comments) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1605020&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
