INADA Naoki added the comment: I want to focus on pure Python implementation in this issue.
While "40x faster" is more 10x faster than "4x faster", C implementation can boost only CPython and makes maintenance more harder. And sometimes "more 10x faster" is not so important. For example, say application startup takes 1sec and namedtuple creation took 0.4sec of the 1sec: 4x faster: 1sec -> 0.7sec (-30%) 40x faster: 1sec -> 0.61sec (-39%) In this case, "4x faster" reduces 0.3sec and "more 10x faster" reduces only 0.09sec. Of course, 1.9x faster attribute access (http://bugs.python.org/issue28638#msg298499) is attractive. But this issue is too long already. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28638> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
