Thanks, these are good points. About speed, do you have any good benchmarks available? In my experience fdlibm is quite reasonable for speed in the context of use by dynamic languages (i.e., counting allocation overheads, lookup and send performance etc) but since I'm not a Python expert I'd appreciate some help with realistic benchmarks. > Bottom line is I suspect that when it comes to bit-for-bit > reproducibility, fewer people care about that x-platform than care > about it x-language on the box they use.

Thus my question if someone had already done this ;-) Cheers, - Andreas _______________________________________________ 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
