STINNER Victor added the comment: I added recently a new _PyUnicode_CompareWithId() function: changeset 77bebcf5c4cf (issue #19512).
This function can be used instead of PyUnicode_CompareWithASCIIString() when the right parameter is a common string. It is interesting when the right string is probably present in a dictionary. For example, "path" is always present as "sys.path". So interning the string doesn't eat more memory. _PyUnicode_CompareWithId() would be more efficient with compare_hash-3.patch. The function is not used yet in critical path. It is now used in type_new() for example. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16286> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
