Yes, I tried changing benchmarks order and zero-copy variants are always faster. As for instantaneous CoW copy, it is debatable. E.g. "cp" command does not do it by default: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/80351/why-is-cp-reflink-auto-not-the-default-behaviour I think shutil should follow the same lead, and perhaps provide a cow=bool argument in the future. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33671> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
