FWIW, we have implemented a faster algorithm for divmod for big numbers using Mark's fast_div.py in PyPy. In particular, this speeds up str(long) for large numbers significantly (eg calling str on the result of math.factorial(2**17) is now 15x faster than CPython ;-)). ---------- nosy: +Carl.Friedrich.Bolz _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue3451> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
