Ezio Melotti added the comment: I tried to run those timings again and the values I got from the terminal are close to the ones I got from the interactive interpreter. I'm not sure why when I wrote those examples I got such different values. It would be fine with me to update them and avoid confusion.

Looking at the current code it seems to me that the command-line uses timeit.repeat(), that repeat calls timeit.timeit(), and that timeit.timeit() disables the gc. Maybe back then it was different; that would explain why I got different results. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18588> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
