Summary: Strange performance with unicode and lists
Initial Comment:
I found some strange error (?) when using list of unicodes. Here is a small
sample:
# Alex in Russian
l = [u'\u0410\u043b\u0435\u043a\u0441']
# print method 1
for s in l:
print s.encode("utf-8")
# print method 2
print [s.encode("utf-8") for s in l]
Output is:
Алекс
['\xd0\x90\xd0\xbb\xd0\xb5\xd0\xba\xd1\x81']
I suppose than output of both methods should be equal. Or maybe I'm wrong?
Python versions: 2.4.4, 2.5 (both version)
OS: Ubuntu 6.10, Debian Etch

No, the output is correct. The __str__() of a list does a __repr__() of
its contents,
to avoid confusion e.g. in this situation:
>>> l = ["a, b, c", "d, e, f"]
If list.__str__ did __str__ on its items, it would look like this:
>>> print l
[a, b, c, d, e, f]
