Correction. I've copy-pasted it wrong! array.array('i', (i, i+1, i+2, i
+3, i+4, i+5, i+6)) was the best.
>>> for i in xrange(0, 1000000): d[unicode(i)] = (i, i+1, i+2, i+3, i+4, i+5,
>>> i+6)
1000000 keys, ['VmPeak:\t 224704 kB', 'VmSize:\t 224704 kB'],
4.079240 seconds, 245143.698209 keys per second
>>> for i in xrange(0, 1000000): d[unicode(i).encode('utf-8')] = (i, i+1, i+2,
>>> i+3, i+4, i+5, i+6)
1000000 keys, ['VmPeak:\t 201440 kB', 'VmSize:\t 201440 kB'],
4.985136 seconds, 200596.331486 keys per second
>>> for i in xrange(0, 1000000): d[unicode(i).encode('utf-8')] =
>>> array.array('i', (i, i+1, i+2, i+3, i+4, i+5, i+6))
1000000 keys, ['VmPeak:\t 125652 kB', 'VmSize:\t 125652 kB'],
