Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Some crude C benchmarking on this computer: - calling PyUnicode_Replace is 35 ns (per call) - calling "hundred".replace is 125 ns - calling PyArg_ParseTuple with the same signature as "hundred".replace is 80 ns
Therefore, most of the overhead (125 - 35 = 90 ns) is in calling PyArg_ParseTuple() to unpack the method arguments. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17170> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
