Mark Shannon <m...@hotpy.org> added the comment:
What is the problem with NOPs? If there are performance regressions in real code, then that needs to be addressed. If only in a few toy examples, then that is (IMO) a price worth paying for predictable debugging and profiling. Raymond: Effectively it does cease to exist. A NOP in the bytecode, except maybe in the tightest of loops, is going to be impossible to detect without inspecting the bytecode. Serhiy: The NOP is outside of the loop, so won't slow down the loop. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42693> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
