True. However, some tuples may be in an unfinished state (they are being built up internally and a GC collection occurred in the middle). > I was wondering whether it is possible to determine whether a tuple > needs to be tracked or not the first time it appears in generation 0 - > tuples in older generations would then not need to be considered. I'm not sure that would make much of a difference in practice. Most tuples are very short, so checking them for untracking should be reasonably fast. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14775> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
