[issue1943] improved allocation of PyUnicode objects
Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: Your microbenchmark is biased towards your patched version. The KEEPALIVE_SIZE_LIMIT will only cut in when you deallocate and then reallocate Unicode objects. The free list used for Unicode objects is also limited to 1024 objects - which isn't all that much. You could tune MAX_UNICODE_FREELIST_SIZE as well. Regarding memory usage: this is difficult to measure in Python, since pymalloc will keep memory chunks allocated even if they are not in use by Python. However, this is a feature of pymalloc and not specific to the Unicode implementation. It can be tuned in pymalloc. To get more realistic memory measurements, you'd have to switch off pymalloc altogether and then create a separate process that consumes lots of memory to force the OS to have it allocate only memory that's really needed to the process you're running for memory measurements. Of course, keeping objects alive in a free list will always use more memory than freeing them altogether and returning the memory to the OS. It's a speed/space tradeoff. The RAM/CPU costs ratio has shifted a lot towards RAM nowadays, so using more RAM is usually more efficient than using more CPU time. Regarding resize: you're right - the string object is a PyVarObject as well and couldn't be changed at the time due to backwards compatibility reasons. You should also note that when I added Unicode to Python 1.6, it was a new and not commonly used type. Codecs were not used much either, so there was no incentive to make resizing strings work better. Later on, other optimizations were added to the Unicode implementation that caused the PyUnicode_Resize() API to also require being able to change the object address. Still, in the common case, it doesn't change the object address. The reason for using an external buffer for the Unicode object was to be able to do further optimizations, such as share buffers between Unicode objects. We never ended up using this, though, but there's still a lot of room for speedups and more memory efficiency because of this design. Like I already mentioned, PyObjects are also easier to extend at C level - adding new variables to the object at the end is easy with PyObjects. It's difficult for PyVarObjects, since you always have to take the current size of the object into account and you always have to use indirection to get at the extra variables due to the undefined offset of the variables. How much speedup do you get when you compare the pybench test with KEEPALIVE_SIZE_LIMIT = 200 compared to your patched version ? __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1943 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Mark Dickinson added the comment: I noticed that the ability to type Rational(2.3) has been added (and I think this is a very useful addition). One minor nit: would it make sense to have Rational(2.) and Rational(.3) also work? These strings work for float() and Decimal(), and 2. and .3 work as float literals, so it would seem to make sense to allow this for Rational as well. __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1682 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue1943] improved allocation of PyUnicode objects
Antoine Pitrou added the comment: With KEEPALIVE_SIZE_LIMIT = 200, the pybench runtime is basically the same as with my patched version. stringbench remains a bit faster though (~8%). You say that RAM size is cheaper than CPU power today, which is true but misses one part of the picture: the importance of CPU caches, and thus of working set size. There are also probably people wanting to use Python in memory-constrained environments (embedded). I understand the argument about possible optimizations with an external buffer, but are such optimizations likely to be implemented? (see #1590352 and #1629305). If they really are, then I'm happy with the unicode type remaining a plain PyObject! __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1943 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue1943] improved allocation of PyUnicode objects
Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: I don't really see the connection with #1629305. An optimization that would be worth checking is hooking up the Py_UNICODE pointer to interned Unicode objects if the contents match (e.g. do a quick check based on the hash value and then a memcmp). That would save memory and the call to the pymalloc allocator. Another strategy could involve a priority queue style cache with the aim of identifying often used Unicode strings and then reusing them. This could also be enhanced using an offline approach: you first run an application with an instrumented Python interpreter to find the most often used strings and then pre-fill the cache or interned dictionary on the production Python interpreter at startup time. Coming from a completely different angle, you could also use the Py_UNICODE pointer to share slices of a larger data buffer. A Unicode sub-type could handle this case, keeping a PyObject* reference to the larger buffer, so that it doesn't get garbage collected before the Unicode slice. Regarding memory constrained environments: these should simply switch off all free lists and pymalloc. OTOH, even mobile phones come with gigabytes of RAM nowadays, so it's not really worth the trouble, IMHO. __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1943 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue1943] improved allocation of PyUnicode objects
Antoine Pitrou added the comment: All of those proposals are much heavier to implement; they also make the unicode type more complicated and difficult to maintain probably (while turning it into a PyVarObject actually shortens the implementation a bit). In any case, it's not something I want to tackle. The reason that I mentioned #1629305 was that it was such an optimization which complicated the unicode type while bringing very significant speedups. __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1943 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue1943] improved allocation of PyUnicode objects
Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: Agreed, those optimizations do make the implementation more complicated. It's also not clear whether they would really be worth it. #1629305 only provided speedups for the case where you write s += 'abc'. The usual idiom for this is to use a list and then concatenate in one go. If you want a really fast approach, you'd use cStringIO or perhaps the bufferarray. I don't think that optimizing for just one particular use case warrants making the code more complicated or changing the C interface radically. In your case, I think that closing the door for being able to easily extend the type implement at the C is the main argument against it. The speedups are only marginal and can also be achieved (to some extent) by tuning the existing implementation's parameters. __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1943 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue1941] 2.6 stdlib using with statement
Benjamin Peterson added the comment: Today, I carefully looked through every change in my patching. I asked myself Does this do the same things in the same order as the original? and Could exceptions cause the code to function differently? They only changes were when the block which used the file was not in a try finally block so if an exception were raised, it the file would be closed. The with statement of course removes this problem. So, I do believe the patch is semantically neutral.

Antoine Pitrou added the comment: I know it's not the place to discuss #1629305, but the join() solution is not always faster. Why? Because 1) there's the list contruction and method call overhead 2) ceval.c has some bytecode hackery to try and make plain concatenations somewhat less slow. As for cStringIO, I actually observed in some experiments that it was slower than the other alternatives, at least for short strings.

[issue1621] Do not assume signed integer overflow behavior
Guido van Rossum added the comment: Unfortunately I have no time to work on this myself, but in order to make progress I recommend checking in things piecemeal so that the same changes don't get reviewed over and over again. I propose that each submit reference this bug (Partial fix for issue #1621 I'd suggest) and that the submits are recorded here (e.g. fixed filename in rXXX (2.5.2), rYYY (2.6)). Then hopefully only a few hard cases will remain. With Neal, I don't see what the warning in _csv is about. What condition is being turned into a constant? Is the compiler perhaps rearranging the code so as to insert if (field[0] == '\0') goto XXX; in front of the for-loop where XXX jumps into the middle of the condition in the if-statement immediately following the for-loop, and skipping that if-block when breaking of the loop later? That would be clever, and correct, and I'm not sure if making i unsigned is going to help -- in fact it might make the compiler decide it can't use that optimization... __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1621 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

The patch also moves the clear type cache function to gc.clear_type_cache(). -- assignee: nnorwitz components: Extension Modules, Interpreter Core files: trunk_compact_freelist.patch keywords: patch messages: 61771 nosy: nnorwitz, tiran priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: gc.compact_freelists type: rfe versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file9308/trunk_compact_freelist.patch __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1953 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue1621] Do not assume signed integer overflow behavior
Ismail Donmez added the comment: Hah strlen in a loop, a nice beginner mistake but its 5.30 AM here so please excuse me, Guido your version of course is way better. But with that version compiler issues Modules/_csv.c:969: warning: assuming signed overflow does not occur when simplifying conditional to constant again, strlen() just fooled that optimization it seems. So there should be another way to optimize this loop. __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1621 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
