Ethan Furman added the comment: As Ian Kelly said on Python-List:
<quote> Micro-benchmarks like the ones [jmf] have been reporting are *useful* when it comes to determining what operations can be better optimized, but they are not *important* in and of themselves. What is important is that actual, real-world programs are not significantly slowed by these kinds of optimizations. Until [it] can demonstrated that real programs are adversely affected by PEP 393, there is not in my opinion any regression that is worth worrying over. </quote> I think this issue should be closed. ---------- nosy: +stoneleaf _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17615> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
