Is it guaranteed that no usage pattern can render this protection inefficient? What if a dict is constructed by intermingling lookups and inserts? Similarly, what happens with e.g. the common use case of dictdefault(list), where you append() after the lookup/insert? Does some key distribution allow the attack while circumventing the protection? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13703> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
