My intentions may be pedagogical but I can guarantee good. I am
following the cases where databases are way-out-of-proportion
techniques, and you only need small numbers persistent.
I am looking for a step-by-step of everything that happens in line one
of the following program:
#!/windows
a= [ ]
What c-l-py says is that the compilation flags vary widely enough to
make my destination worthless. Accepting concern, please only reply
in readers' free time.
I expect I wish to override routines and macros which are buried
pretty deep and used pretty pervasively throughout Python and inner
user extension modules, so I'll reemphasize that I'm only interested
in pass-time hobbyage. Consultants need not reply (but of course
may).
I foresee that writing my own disk-based-heap may be in order, which
would be why Bruno keeps directing us to relationals. I would want an
arena file/pool file.
Zoom out to the big picture:
Session 1:
>>> managingfolder= '/live/Python/'
>>> manager['a']= [ 0 ]
Session 2:
>>> managingfolder= '/live/Python/'
>>> manager['a']
[ 0 ]
>>> manager['a'].append( 0 )
Session 3:
>>> managingfolder= '/live/Python/'
>>> manager['a']
[ 0, 0 ]
I would kind of expect a file per the diagram in obmalloc.c, and I
expect to specialize in CPython.

struct pool_header and struct arena_object would probably appear, and
to explify priorities, performance would be a low priority, and it's a
high priority to stay all in Python. (Aside, I certainly would
maintain Python is yes, still Python.)
