As far as I understand, Alexandre doesn't propose to suppress
memoization, only to make it implicit. Therefore the memory overhead
would be the same (but the pickle would have less opcodes).

Apparently, floats don't get memoized:
>>> pickletools.dis(pickle.dumps([1.0, 2.0]))
0: \x80 PROTO 3
2: ] EMPTY_LIST
3: q BINPUT 0
5: ( MARK
6: G BINFLOAT 1.0
15: G BINFLOAT 2.0
24: e APPENDS (MARK at 5)
25: . STOP
