Raymond Hettinger added the comment: The easiest change would essentially involve inlining the code for append/appendleft and then removing unneeded steps (the state update, the INCREF/DECREF of item, and the TRIM() test).
Of these, the INCREF/DECREF is likely to be a nice win because we can rotate without visiting all the underlying objects (each of which would likely be a cache-line miss). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16398> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
