New submission from Alexandre Vassalotti <alexan...@peadrop.com>:

This is a big patch. Please review at http://codereview.appspot.com/1694050/show

This patch adds the most interesting optimizations from Unladen Swallow to 
Python 3's pickle.

The core of the patch already been reviewed by Antoine and me 
(http://codereview.appspot.com/33070/show). One of the last issue remaining the 
unbounded size of the internal buffer. This shouldn't be a big issue for most 
uses of pickle, since the size of a  pickle is often several times smaller than 
the object hierarchy that created it. I still hope to fix this in a following 
patch.

The patch also include additional cleanups to the Pdata structure. The changes 
felt natural to make along with the other changes from Unladen Swallow. IIRC, 
these changes yield an additional 1-3% speedup.
