Eryk Sun added the comment: In scanning over issue 8828, I see no discussion of the consequences of not using MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED in Antoine's patch, so it appears that this behavior change was unintentional.

Correct, the copy employed by shutil.move for a cross-volume move is not as optimized as what MoveFile uses (basically CopyFile), but unless you're moving a file that's very large it shouldn't matter, and even then without testing I don't know if it's a significant difference relative to the throughput of the disk(s) involved. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28356> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
