Raymond, do you have time for the review? It will be easier to support both 
implementation at the same time, than change only Python implementation and 
asynchronously update the patch with the risk to lost changes in C 
implementation.

I think we should increase the priority of this issue. Efficient lru_cache will 
affect other parts of the stdlib. In particular the use of lru_cache was 
withdrawed in the re module due to large overhead of Python implementation. The 
ipaddress module now uses own specialized implementation of the caching instead 
of general lru_cache for the same reason. Issue13299 proposition will be more 
acceptable with faster lru_cache.
