Basically iterators of builtin objects (dicts or tuples of strings or numbers). Typically one unit or "row" per dumps() call (they are written one after the next and marshal load can easily load them in the same manner). They're certainly never the same objects (except maybe for dict keys, which might be interned) Cheers, nd _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
