Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com> added the comment: Updated the title to reflect that the peephole optimizer will likely continue to exist but in a much simpler form. Some complex peephole optimization such as constant folding can be handled more easily and more robustly at the AST level.
Other minor peephole optimizations such as jump-to-jump simplification as still bytecode level optimizations (ones that improve the quality of the generated code without visibility to higher level semantics). ---------- title: Rewrite peephole to work on AST -> Build-out an AST optimizer, moving some functionality out of the peephole optimizer _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11549> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
