New submission from Adrian Wielgosik:
The attached patch adds new logic to peephole compiler to remove constants that
are no longer needed after the main peephole pass.
For example:
def f():
var = 'te' + 'xt'
num = -12
num = -6 * 2
return (1, (3, 4), 6)
print(f.__code__.co_consts)
Without the patch:
(None, 'te', 'xt', 12, 6, 2, 1, 3, 4, 'text', -12, -6, -12, (3, 4), (1, (3,
4), 6))
With patch:
(None, 'text', -12, -12, (1, (3, 4), 6))
(unfortunately, I couldn't get rid of None because that would make 'text' a
docstring)
For convenience, I've written the patch in two parts.
The first one just changes the CONST_STACK_* macros to store the co_const
indices instead of the constants themselves, the second one is the actual
implementation of the new logic.
Aside from simply having to store less objects around, this also makes
co_consts contents closer together. This may help the cache a little bit.
---------
I did run benchmarks multiple times, but it looked like all the results were
random noise. That makes sense, since I didn't directly affect the runtime.
The only consistently faster benchmark is:
- regex_dna: 288 ms +- 7 ms -> 275 ms +- 5 ms: 1.05x faster
I tried to measure the difference in compile time, but it too was lost in the
noise.
---------
I also compared size of compiled .pyc files in the Lib/ directory.
The gains are mostly very small.
