We would need a new format for Py_BuildValue, e.g. 'a' for ASCII string.
Later we can add new functions like _PyDict_GetASCII().
The main difference between my new "const ASCII" string idea and
PyIdentifier is the lifetime of objects. Using "const ASCII" strings, the
strings are destroyed quickly (to not waste memory), whereas PyIdentifiers
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
are intern strings and so they are only destroyed at Python exit.
I don't know if "const ASCII" strings solve a real issue. I implemented my
idea. I will do some benchmarks to check if it's useful or not :-)
Ok, I did some tests: it is slower with my PyConstASCIIObject. I don't
understand why, but it means that the idea is not interesting because the code
is not faster.
I think you've already given the answer above...
I tried with and without interned strings. It doesn't change anything.
