I suppose performance could have been a motivator originally. However, I don't see a benefit now that signals handlers are no longer pending calls. If it's a real problem then we can leverage a free list. As to complexity, the motivator for this change was difficulty I had (along with another core dev) in quickly understanding the logic for manipulating the circular buffer. I find the linked list much easier to understand. ---------- nosy: +emilyemorehouse _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35466> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
