It also doesn't say the individual contribution of each optimization, and it also doesn't say on which kind of workloads the "huge speedup" was witnessed (I would say that pystone is a possibility, or perhaps even some timeit micro-benchmark). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9800> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
