Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: You are right, #2321 made the numbers a bit tighter:
With a small string: ./python -m timeit -s "s=open('INTBENCH', 'r').read()" "s.split()" -> Unpatched py3k: 23.1 usec per loop -> Freelist patch: 21.3 usec per loop -> PyVarObject patch: 20.5 usec per loop With a medium-sized string: ./python -m timeit -s "s=open('LICENSE', 'r').read()" "s.split()" -> Unpatched py3k: 406 usec per loop -> Freelist patch: 353 usec per loop -> PyVarObject patch: 314 usec per loop With a long string: ./python -m timeit -s "s=open('Misc/HISTORY', 'r').read()" "s.split()" -> Unpatched py3k: 22.7 msec per loop -> Freelist patch: 24 msec per loop -> PyVarObject patch: 20.6 msec per loop stringbench3k: -> Unpatched py3k: 266 seconds -> Freelist patch: 264 seconds -> PyVarObject patch: 249 seconds Regarding your benchmarking suggestion, this would certainly be an interesting thing to do, but I fear it is also much more than I'm willing to do... I'm going to post the updated patches. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1943> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
