What's the benefit over attempting to hash() the object? copy.deepcopy already has special case for int, string, and tuples (including tuples that do and do not have mutable members) - could what you need be accomplished by overriding __copy__ and __deepcopy__ in your custom class to return itself if it is immutable? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
