Note first that if you don't do anything with 'k', it might be optimized away. I just wrote a pure C example doing the same thing, and indeed converting the integers to float, dividing, and then converting back to integer... is 2.2x times faster there too. Go figure it out. I have no idea why the CPU behaves like that. Maybe Neal can provide a clue. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
