Yes, I measured 35% speedup on richards/pystone on "the other branch" (that
solely knows this kind of dictionary unlike the current trunk).

Because every class can define it's own hash/eq functions that might be
considered insane in case of having them return hashes that match the
hashes of a string. That would mean that {"foo": 1}[myClass()] could return
1. Therefore we have to switch the mode while having a shortcut for types
which are known to have sane hashes only.

I didn't even consider that people would write __hash__ methods with
side-effects :)
Kind regards,
Alexander, who has resent this posting 2 days after the initial try - Gmane
