[Python-Dev] Re: PEP 626: Precise line numbers for debugging and other tools.

[Jim J. Jewett]

In theory, this table could be stored somewhere other than the code object, so 
that it doesn't actually get paged in or occupy cache unless tracing is on.  
Whether that saves enough to be worth the extra indirections when tracing is 
on, I have no intention of volunteering to measure.  I will note that in the 
past, taking out docstrings (not even just moving them to a dict of 
[code:docstring] -- just taking them out completely) has been considered 
worthwhile.
