Larry Hastings added the comment: 10**3 doesn't show off this hack as much as other numbers would; the hack only operates from 257 to the max in that will fit in a single long "digit" (32767 on 32-bit, 2**30 on 64-bit).
Anyway, freelist for one-digit longs seems nearly as good, and it's a lot more general-purpose, so I'm much more interested in that. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24138> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
