It increases the size of the eval loop. It can break optimizations which is performed by the C compiler only when the code size does not exceed some limits, and it can exceed the size of processor caches which can make execution less efficient. So there are possible negative effects. We should have evidence that this change actually improves performance. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40974> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
