This is proof of concept patch to support LOAD_METHOD & CALL_METHOD for
METH_FASTCALL methods.
(This patch should be applied after fastcall.patch)
$ ./python -m perf timeit --compare-to `pwd`/python-fastcall -s "d = b''" --
"d.decode()"
python-fastcall: ..................... 91.0 ns +- 1.0 ns
python: ..................... 80.3 ns +- 0.3 ns
Median +- std dev: [python-fastcall] 91.0 ns +- 1.0 ns -> [python] 80.3 ns +-
0.3 ns: 1.13x faster
$ ./python -m perf timeit --compare-to `pwd`/python-fastcall -s "d = b''" --
"d.decode('ascii')"
python-fastcall: ..................... 116 ns +- 1 ns
python: ..................... 106 ns +- 1 ns
Median +- std dev: [python-fastcall] 116 ns +- 1 ns -> [python] 106 ns +- 1 ns:
1.10x faster
Since PyCFunction is lighter than PyMethodObject, performance benefit seems
smaller than
Python method (up to 20%).
Sadly speaking, there are only few METH_FASTCALL in builtin type.
