Guido van Rossum added the comment:

Looks Good, except I think it's a bad idea to release/acquire the GIL
for each character when writing the repr() of a string.  Given that the
string is immutable and its refcount kept alive by the caller I don't
see a reason why you can't just reference the object without holding the
GIL.  (Also you might want to copy the size into a local variable, it
won't change...)
