Stefan Krah added the comment: The tracker swallowed some parts of my mail: In general, execution times for _Py_dg_dtoa vary quite a bit depending on the number that is converted: >>> s = "str(1.5e300)" >>> t = timeit.Timer(stmt=s)

Stefan Krah added the comment: On an older Celeron platform the differences are up to 7%, but again, the number that is converted has a far greater impact: None: = >>> s = "str(38210.0)" >>> t = timeit.Timer(stmt=s) >>> >>> t.timeit(number=

2010-10-10 Thread Stefan Krah
Stefan Krah added the comment: r85358 fixes the failures in test_sysconfig. The duplicate LDFLAGS are still present, but if it is generally accepted that make-LDFLAGS should be appended to configure-LDFLAGS, then I don't see any way around that. As for me, this could be closed again
