Martin Panter added the comment: It looks like Bert’s patch adjusted two ldconfig calls; the first one was in a BSD-specific branch. Was this intended? Only the second call (default “else:” branch) seems applicable to AIX.
Perhaps the performance is improved now that the popen() shell calls have been replaced with more direct subprocess.Popen() calls; see revision a09ae70f3489 and Issue 22636. If the 300 ms slowdown was due to the shell, that should no longer be a problem. But if the slowdown is say inherent in fork(), I am not sure it is worth adding the proposed os.path.exists() check. Either try a way of spawning a child process without fork(), like Issue 20104. Or avoid calling find_library() in the first place, like I suggested at <https://bugs.python.org/issue11063#msg264151>. ---------- stage: -> test needed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21826> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
