I know a simple technique that could should basically avoid the function call overhead that might be worrying you, but it's really not suitable to use except in case of a really serious bottleneck. How bad is the performance in the particular case that concerns you? What kinds of timing measurement have you got that show the problem? (The technique is basically a particular way of using a generator... should be obvious and easy to figure out if it's really the "function call overhead" that is your bottleneck.) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
