Maybe 4 is too small. On 64 bit, it's just 5*8=40 bytes. Maybe we can use a buffer of 10 pointers: 80 bytes? It would optimize calls with up to 9 arguments (1 pointer is used for "obj" argument, the "prepended" argument). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27841> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
