Benchmark comparing collections.namedtuple to structseq, to get an attribute:
* Getting an attribute by name (obj.attr):
Mean +- std dev: [name_structseq] 24.1 ns +- 0.5 ns -> [name_namedtuple] 45.7
ns +- 1.9 ns: 1.90x slower (+90%)
* Getting an attribute by its integer index (obj[0]):
(not significant)
So structseq is 1.9x faster than namedtuple to get an attribute by name.
haypo@speed-python$ ./bin/python3 -m perf timeit -s "from collections import
namedtuple; Point=namedtuple('Point', 'x y'); p=Point(1,2)" "p.x"
--duplicate=1024 -o name_namedtuple.json
Mean +- std dev: 45.7 ns +- 1.9 ns
haypo@speed-python$ ./bin/python3 -m perf timeit -s "from collections import
namedtuple; Point=namedtuple('Point', 'x y'); p=Point(1,2)" "p[0]"
--duplicate=1024 -o int_namedtuple.json
Mean +- std dev: 17.6 ns +- 0.0 ns
haypo@speed-python$ ./bin/python3 -m perf timeit -s "from sys import flags"
"flags.debug" --duplicate=1024 -o name_structseq.json
Mean +- std dev: 24.1 ns +- 0.5 ns
haypo@speed-python$ ./bin/python3 -m perf timeit -s "from sys import flags"
"flags[0]" --duplicate=1024 -o int_structseq.json
Mean +- std dev: 17.6 ns +- 0.2 ns

Getting an attribute by its integer index is as fast as tuple:
haypo@speed-python$ ./bin/python3 -m perf timeit --inherit=PYTHONPATH -s
"p=(1,2)" "p[0]" --duplicate=1024 -o int_tuple.json
.....................
Mean +- std dev: 17.6 ns +- 0.0 ns
