Thanks, I can confirm that the speedup for memoryview.cast() is large in microbenchmarks. Still, if the speedup cannot be seen in programs like test_buffer, the amount of code that's being added for a speedup < 5% in real world programs is quite substantial (if you count the generated code and the fast_call machinery). But we can leave it in. Preemptively, if someone sees this and thinks the flood gates are open for _decimal: No, it won't be converted to AC. ---------- status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41262> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
