Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: I don't think rewriting party of site.py in C is a good idea. It's a rather maintenance intense module.
However, optimizing access is certainly something that's possible, e.g. by placing the few variables that are actually needed by site.py into a bootstrap module for sysconfig, which only contains the few variables needed by interpreter startup. Alternatively, sysconfig data could be made available via a C lookup function; with the complete dictionary only being created on demand. get_config_var() already is such a lookup API which could be used as front-end. ---------- nosy: +lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29585> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
