Applying this patch - I tried this hypothetical test. $ ./python.exe -m timeit -s "import urllib.parse; x='a%20' * 100000" "urllib.parse.unquote(x)" 10 loops, best of 3: 205 msec per loop
Without the patch, the above test will run for minutes! This creates a significant difference for extremely long query strings. For small strings the performance is negligible. Serhiy: One question. Is there a need to have - + append = res.append And then use 'append'? res.append is easier for readability IMO. Besides that I dont have any other comments. Maciej's comment could be sought as he (correctly) brought up this issue. _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
