Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: I wouldn't make this the default, since the probability is small, but not zero.
However, it may be worth exploring this as dict sub-type for applications to use which could benefit from it. For internal strings, we already use interning, so no win there. The probabilistic approach would only make sense for dictionaries which store non-interned Unicode keys and get lots of dict lookups. ---------- nosy: +lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23712> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
