That's why we think that the most probably future move here is: 1. Code a small core in C. 2. Let the rest of Decimal in Py. "small core" and "rest of Decimal" are moving targets.... we (as python-dev) could decide that __add__ is really worthy to do it in C, but not quantize(), for example. Regards, -- .
