So this method is not applicable for a byte. Here is a patch only for strings. If a fast hash for bytes/memoryview is desirable, I can write a fast robust implementation for nonaligned data. But this will be more cumbersome and a bit slower. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27950/fast_str_hash.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16427> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
