Also, semi related, (dunno where to discuss it), would a good .join() optimization be to add an optional length parameter, like .join(iterable, length=10), and when running in that code-path, it would skip all the calls to (PySequence_Fast which converts no list to list), and all the pre calculation of length to calculate allocation size, and instead directly start copying from input until length is done, and if the iterable didn't have enough length to fill up, only then throw an exception ? There are places where you know how much information you expect to be .joining (or you want to join just a part of it) ? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39974> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
