Right now Python generates the trampoline from the class prototype every time you call a method. If the semantics allowed, you could create the trampoline at instantiation time (for better or worse). That way, the problem you seem to be referring to wouldn't materialize.
Sorry, I misinterpreted what you were suggesting. You seem to be suggesting an optimisation that pre-creates bound methods when the instance is created. Keeping a cache of bound methods would achieve the same thing without changing the semantics. I think CPython might already be doing that, but I'm not sure. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
