Raymond Hettinger added the comment: Victor, this should also work for dictionaries as well. Fundamentally, the concepts of loop-unrolling and exploiting cache locality should apply to any hash table implementation.
That said, the dicts are more complex than sets due to 1) storing the hash/key/value 2) key-sharing, and 3) different access patterns. So, it will require more effort than just porting over the patch. Feel free to open a new tracker item for that one. It will take more work but will potentially have a much greater pay-off. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18771> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
