Antoine Pitrou added the comment: > _PyUnicodeWriter is almost always faster
Actually, PyAccu is consistently faster for the "writer" case, while _PyUnicodeWriter is faster for the "writer-reader" case. This is not because of PyAccu, but because of the way StringIO uses it: when e.g. readline() is called, the PyAccu result is converted into a PyUCS4* buffer, then each readline() result is converted again by finding the max char in the sub-buffer. So I would suggest using PyAccu, but converting its result to a _PyUnicodeWriter rather than a PyUCS4* buffer. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15612> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
