New submission from Xiang Zhang:
Since PyMapping_Keys always return a list or tuple and most __all__s are list
(all in stdlib), I think we can avoid calling PySequence_GetItem for every key
and use PySequence_Fast* APIs instead. This doesn't help much since other
operations involved are expensive.
With patch:
[bin]$ ./python3 -m perf timeit -s 'import _ast; code=compile("from _ast import
*", "<string>", "exec")' 'exec(code)'
....................
Median +- std dev: 11.3 us +- 0.3 us
[bin]$ ./python3 -m perf timeit -s 'import zipfile; code=compile("from zipfile
import *", "<string>", "exec")' 'exec(code)'
....................
Median +- std dev: 2.98 us +- 0.04 us
Without patch:
[bin]$ ./python3 -m perf timeit -s 'import _ast; code=compile("from _ast import
*", "<string>", "exec")' 'exec(code)'
....................

*", "<string>", "exec")' 'exec(code)'
