New submission from Ma Lin <malin...@163.com>:
C type `long` is 4-byte integer in 64-bit Windows build (MSVC behavior). [1] In other compilers, `long` is 8-byte integer in 64-bit build. This leads to a bit unnecessary performance waste, issue38252 fixed this problem in a situation. Search `SIZEOF_LONG` in CPython code, there's still a few long type waste. Novices are welcome to try contribution.
