Sorry Wolfgang - I missed that Chris was expanding on a comparison you
initially made!

Either way, I agree that aspect does make up the bulk of the difference in
speed, so moving to C likely wouldn't help much. However, the speed
difference relative to the simpler warppers is far less defensible - I
think there are some opportunities for improvement there, especially around
moving introspection work out of _GeneratorContextManager.__init__ and into
the contextmanager decorator itself.

Cheers,
Nick.
