The proposed patch does not avoid caching the previous values of the iterator, it just reduces the size of each cached object. It would be nice to be able to avoid caching on demand, which would make iteration independent of the size of the tar file. Greetings Uwe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
