New submission from Marian Horban:
It is possible to improve performance of json module encoder.
Since access to local variables is faster than to globals/builtins I propose to
use locals instead of globals.
Small test of such improvement:
>>> import timeit
>>> def flocal(name=False):
... for i in range(5):
... x = name
...
>>> timeit.timeit("flocal()", "from __main__ import flocal", number=10000000)
5.0455567836761475
>>>
>>> def fbuilt_in():
... for i in range(5):
... x = False
...
>>>
>>> timeit.timeit("fbuilt_in()", "from __main__ import fbuilt_in",
>>> number=10000000)
