Doing that in Python is likely to have as much overhead as creating an instance. The simple and obvious optimisation is to pre-create the instance, but we're proposing to make the obvious way wrong for subtle reasons. That doesn't seem pythonic to me. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
