New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>: Split out from #4074, here is a standalone patch which disables GC tracking for simple tuples (tuples made of atomic objects or immutable containers, possibly nested). The performance improvement can be evaluated using tuple_gc_hell.py from #4074.
The patch also adds a function named is_tracked() to the gc module. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: tupleopts.patch keywords: patch messages: 77995 nosy: pitrou priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: GC optimization: don't track simple tuples and dicts type: performance versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file12387/tupleopts.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4688> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
