New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:
Currently writing marshalled data to buffer is not very efficient. Data is
written byte by byte with testing conditions p->fp != NULL and p->ptr != p->end
for every byte. Proposed patch makes writing to buffer faster.
Benchmark results:
$ ./python -m timeit -s "import marshal; d =
compile(open('Lib/_pydecimal.py').read(), '_pydecimal.py', 'exec')" --
"marshal.dumps(d)"
Unpatched: 100 loops, best of 3: 4.64 msec per loop
Patched: 100 loops, best of 3: 3.39 msec per loop
$ ./python -m timeit -s "import marshal; a = ['%010x' % i for i in
range(10**4)]" -- "marshal.dumps(a)"
Unpatched: 1000 loops, best of 3: 1.96 msec per loop
