Hello
As my Master's dissertation I chose Cpython optimization. That's why
i'd like to ask what are your suggestions what can be optimized. Well,
I know that quite a lot. I've downloaded the source code (I plan to
work on Cpython 2.6 and I've downloaded 2.6.3 release). By looking at
the code I've found comment's like "this can be optimized by..." etc.
but maybe you guide me what should I concentrate on in my work?
I've 6-7 month for this and If I create something decent I can
publish it.
Thank you in advance for any help
The Shed Skin people would welcome some help.

Shed Skin is a Python to C++ compiler with automatic type inference.
For the programs it can handle, it's the fastest Python implementation
by a large margin.
The basic restriction in Shed Skin is that, while you don't have to
declare types, each variable generally has to stay the same type
throughout its life. (Different subclasses of the same class are OK.)
This is enough to make huge speedups possible.
