Comment (by nthiery):

 Good morning Jeroen,

 Replying to [comment:53 jdemeyer]:

 Yes, I am very happy with the Cython iterator (and its upcoming
 optimizations) and the Parent enumerated sets (`IntegerLists*`). What
 I am wondering about are the intermediate classes
 (`IntegerLists*Impl`). What's their precise role? Do we really need
 them?

 - Are there situations where an iterator is not enough (we really need
   to model the enumerated set itself), yet we can't afford the
   overhead of having a Parent?

 And / or

 - Are the *Impl just utility classes that are mandatory to construct
   the iterator?


 Maybe we should have a short video conference at some point; it would
 be much easier to discuss!
