Despite this change there are still a huge amount

Why 'unexplained'? 'persistent_id' is called from the Pickler
instance
being used in ObjectWriter._dump(). It is called for each and every
single object reachable from the main object, due to the way Pickler
works (I believe). Maybe persistent_id can be analysed and optimized
for the most common cases?
If you look at the profiler stats I posted earlier you would have
noticed that there was about 1.3 million calls to persistent_id while
only 20000 objects were persisted. So if it is being called for each
object I would expect a figure closer to 20000, not 1.3 million.
What am
I missing?
It's called for *all* objects, not just persistent objects. This
includes, ints, strings (including attribute names), etc.
