I don't know. *_find_max_char in any case only a part of expensive functions. Even if it is optimized to zero time, this will most likely not produce a larger speedup. > I don't think a 10% improvement on a micro-benchmark is interesting at all > (it's basically 0% on any real-world program). I agree. It is rather a question of purity. In my opinion the function has become easier (for developer and for compiler). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15145> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
