Was this abandoned just because nobody had the time, or was there a problem with the approach? I independently wanted this optimisation, and have ended up implementing something very similar to what was reverted in https://hg.python.org/lookup/dff6b4b61cac. In a benchmark that creates a large bytearray, then fills it with socket.readinto, I'm seeing a 2x performance improvement on Linux, and from some quick benchmarking it seems to be just as fast as the old code for small arrays that are allocated from the pool. ---------- nosy: +bmerry _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue21644> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
