Creates the following performance improvement:
Before:
> .\python.bat -m timeit -s "A = list(range(10**7)); B = list(range(10**7))"
> "A==B"
2 loops, best of 5: 134 msec per loop
> .\python.bat -m timeit -s "A = list(range(10**7)); B = list(range(10**7))"
> "A==B"
2 loops, best of 5: 134 msec per loop
After:
> .\python.bat -m timeit -s "A = list(range(10**7)); B = list(range(10**7))"
> "A==B"
2 loops, best of 5: 126 msec per loop
