Yes. I'll benchmark how much overhead is added by the calls to flush; there's no point in breaking the abstraction boundary of BufferedWriter if it doesn't give a significant performance benefit. (I suspect that it might not, because Windows is very slow at scrolling a console, which might make the cost of flushing insignificant in comparison.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1602> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
