excellent! just fyi, unless my benchmark is mistaken, the Unicode implementation has the same problem: str in -> 25.8 µsec per loop unicode in -> 26.8 µsec per loop str.find() -> 6.73 µsec per loop unicode.find() -> 7.24 µsec per loop oddly enough, if I change the target string so it doesn't contain any partial matches at all, unicode.find() wins the race: str in -> 24.5 µsec per loop unicode in -> 24.6 µsec per loop str.find() -> 2.86 µsec per loop unicode.find() -> 2.16 µsec per loop </F> _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
