not necessarily, but there are lots of issues involved when doing high-performance XML stuff, and I'm not sure views would help quite as much as one might think. (writing and tuning cET was a great way to learn that not everything that you think you know about C performance applies to C code running inside the Python interpreter...) </F> _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
