New submission from Steve Holden <st...@holdenweb.com>: The attached program completes in less than half a second under Python 2.5. Under Python 3 it takes almost three minutes on the same system. The issue appears to be heavy use of decoding, at least in a Windows system, during creation of the mailbox toc. The disparity may be less remarkable when not profiling.
Further attachments will include a test data file (a Thunderbird mailbox taken from the same host system) and profiler outputs from the 2.5 and 3.1 runs of this program. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: test_thunderbird_mailbox.py messages: 108978 nosy: holdenweb priority: normal severity: normal stage: unit test needed status: open title: Mailbox module demonstrates infeasibly slow performance type: performance versions: Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17809/test_thunderbird_mailbox.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9124> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
