Brett Cannon added the comment: What Greg said. =) Basically it would allow those who know what they are doing to cut out a stat call per load. I suspect anyone deploying to a server is in a similar situation where they are not actively editing the code once deployed, and so saving on the startup of a new process (probably most beneficial in a CI situation).
I might also simply refactor the importlib loader code to make this at least possible for someone to implement without doing the work for them. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23723> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
