I'm aware of two potentially problematic consequences to this change: * making changes to those source files for the modules will not be reflected during execution until after "make" is run * tricks to inject hooks ASAP (e.g. coverage.py swaps the encodings module) may lose their entry point For the former, I'm not sure there's a way around it. We may consider the inconvenience worth it in order to get the performance benefits. For the latter, the obvious solution is to introduce a startup hook (e.g. on the CLI) like we've talked about doing for years. (I wasn't able to find previous discussions on that topic after a quick search.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45020> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
