Antoine, Victor and me have implemented a couple of speed ups for "import site" already. I removed several unnecessary imports by rearranging some code. AFAIK imports on OSX haven't been optimized yet. On Linux I get: $ ./python -c "import sys; print(len(sys.modules))" 34 $ ./python -S -c "import sys; print(len(sys.modules))" 22 Brett, are you an OSX developer? :) Christian _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
