While the various frame and debugger PEPs that are open offer a better solution to this, they might not be accepted for 3.11. So I'd like to revisit this. Removing the calls to `PyFrame_FastToLocals` and friends cuts the overhead of tracing down a lot. A *lot*. Using Fabio's example I get the following slowdowns: No calls to PyFrame_FastToLocals`: x10 Main branch with one local variable: x16 Main branch with six locals variables: x50 This is quite a compelling reason to remove the calls to `PyFrame_FastToLocals`. The questions is "what will we break doing this"? All the tests pass, so that seems promising. Ned, how would this impact coverage.py? ---------- nosy: +nedbat _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42197> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
