[issue29737] Optimize concatenating empty tuples

2017-03-06 Thread Serhiy Storchaka
Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: I agree with your comments Raymond, but let me to expose my reasons. An idea of optimizing empty tuple concatenating is inspired by partial(). It concatenates two tuples of arguments and it is common when one of tuple is empty. Current C implementation makes

2017-03-06 Thread Raymond Hettinger
Raymond Hettinger added the comment: Is it at all common to concatenate empty tuples? This seems like optimizing something that rarely occurs. Also, the timings can be misleading if in real code these changes cause new branch mispredictions here which can slow the common case. See http://st

[issue29737] Optimize concatenating empty tuples

2017-03-06 Thread Serhiy Storchaka
New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: Since tuples are immutable, concatenating with empty tuple can be optimized by returning an opposite argument. Microbenchmarks (the difference is larger for larger tuples): $ ./python -m perf timeit --duplicate=100 -s 'a = (1, 2)' 'a + ()' Unpatched: Medi
