It's statistically better (a fixed 1.33 expansion instead of 1.5 average), but ASCII bytearrays will pickle less efficiently than currently. There's something else: we had enough regressions in the latest 2.7.x release, and we shouldn't risk adding new ones in the next release. Really, let's close this issue. ---------- nosy: +benjamin.peterson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13503> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
