Comment (by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:54 nthiery]:
 > Thanks for the timings! The startup gain should be of roughly
 50*(231-74)ns which will be anyway far less than a ms and negligible. I
 would thus tend to stick to the standard Python module itertools, and
 ignore the little indicator from the startup module plugin.

 Too late... I already posted an update of my patch.

 Well, I'd say let the patchbot try, at least.

 Thank you.

 I've put the cpdef counter into sage.misc.c3_controlled---I think this is
 a good place, given that it is needed when applying the controlled c3 in
 categories.

 With the original patch, one had `Category._cmp_key_generator.next()`,
 hence, two attribute lookups and a function call. With the new patch, one
 just has one function call, which also seems to be faster than the
 function call to `next()`.

 Let us keep our fingers crossed concerning the findings of the patchbot...

 Apply trac_13589-categories-c3_under_control-nt.patch
 trac13589_cmp_key_attribute.patch trac13589_improve_startuptime.patch
