STINNER Victor added the comment: Oh, I was surprised to see same or worse performances for UTF-8/backslashreplace. In fact, I forgot to enable overallocation. With overallocation, it is now faster ;-)
I modified the API to put the "stack buffer" inside _PyBytesWriter API directly. I also reworked _PyBytesWriter_Alloc() to call _PyBytesWriter_Prepare() so _PyBytesWriter_Alloc() now supports overallocation as well. It was part of _PyBytesWriter design to support overallocation at the first allocation (_PyBytesWriter_Alloc), that's why we have _PyBytesWriter_Alloc() *and* _PyBytesWriter_Init(): it's possible to set overallocate=1 between init and alloc. I pushed my change since it didn't kill performances. It's only a little bit smaller but on very short encode: less than 500 ns. In other cases, it's the same performances or faster. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25318> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
