We usually do not backport optimizations to 2.7. It could be backported if a regression was introduced in one of 2.7 bugfixes, but range() was here before ebd48b4f650d. Also, range(0x10000,0x10ffff+1) takes only 32*2**16 = 2 MiB of memory. It is small in comparison with total memory consumption. Obviously there are other causes of the difference between 2.7 and 3.x. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39146> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
