Wordcode is the issue #26647. Do you have a reference to the more efficient implementation of CALL_FUNCTION? I recall vaguely this idea. -- It was also proposed to pass keyword arguments as positional arguments: replace func(a=1, b=2) with func(1, 2) with "def func(a, b): ...". But this optimization requires something like FAT Python to disable the optimization if the function is replaced at runtime. This optimization is more complex, maybe it's not worth. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26802> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
