Mark Bell added the comment:
I ran some timing tests of the patch I submitted to compare it to the current
build of Python. Using timit on the current master branch I got:
python.exe -m timeit "sum(())" .... 1.12 usec per loop
python.exe -m timeit "sum((), 0)" .... 1.22 usec per loop
And for the patched version:
python.exe -m timeit "sum(())" .... 1.46 usec per loop
python.exe -m timeit "sum((), 0)" .... 1.57 usec per loop
However my patch wasn't just the simple argument clinic change suggested by
serhiy.storchaka, so maybe that would be more efficient and easier to
understand.
