Alexandre Vassalotti added the comment: My point is I would prefer that we keep all optimizations to only the _pickle C module and keep the Python implementation as simple as possible.
Also, I doubt the slight speedup shown by your microbenchmark will actually result in any significant benefits on the overall performance of pickle.py. Furthermore, we can't use CPython to measure the benefits of such optimization because CPython will always use _pickle over the Python implementation. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16551> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
