Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: I wouldn’t call this a performance issue. From #4359, you can see that the two main reasons are first to avoid breakage on platforms that put pyconfig.h and Makefile in another package than the interpreter, and most importantly than the code is hard to maintain. Resource usage diminution will just be a nice side-effect.
