New submission from Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com>:
Right now, every heap function is given a new annotations dictionary even if annotations aren't used. How about we create these lazily in order to speed-up function creation time, improve start-up time, and save space. >>> def f(): pass >>> def g(): return 1 >>> f.__annotations__ {} >>> g.__annotations__ {} >>> hex(id(f.__annotations__)) '0x109207e40' >>> hex(id(g.__annotations__)) '0x1092296c0' ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 350490 nosy: rhettinger priority: low severity: normal status: open title: Create empty __annotations__ dictionaries lazily type: performance versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37949> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
