Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: Well, memory fragmentation can happen with any allocation scheme, and it's possible even Python 3 isn't immune to this. Backporting performance improvements is a strain on our resources and also constitutes a maintenance threat (what if the bug hides in the new code?). And Python 2.7 is really nearing its end-of-life more and more everyday. So IMHO it's a no-no.
