Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment:
This is presumably also present in 3.6 and 2.7 so I've tagged those on the issue, but for this kind of change i'd leave it up to release managers to see if they want to backport something of this nature that late in those release cycles. Observable side effect: It adds a small memory allocation & free around every thread creation and an additional small C stack frame. I do not expect that to be observable performance wise given CPython threading not being a high performer thanks to the GIL anyways. ---------- versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33015> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
