I know very little about how this works except a vague rule of thumb that in the 21st century memory locality is king. If you want code to be fast, keep it close together, not spread out.
Python objects are already scattered all over memory, and a function already consists of several objects -- the function object itself, a dict, a code object, lists of argument and local variable names, etc. I doubt whether the suggested change would make locality noticeably worse. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/EPHPXSPL5VVIF23YJKJBG42OBIUKHVV7/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
