Microbench results for ADD_INT: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/25090#issuecomment-810441738 I have a few others like this lined up -- Mark recommended submitting them one at a time to make review easier. My philosophy here (which I learned from Tim Peters in the early 2000s) is that even though each individual improvement has no measurable effect on a general benchmark (as shown in the same comment), the combined effect of a number of tiny improvements can be significant. We have reached a point where there are very few individual changes possible that still have a significant effect, but we should not use this as an excuse to stop trying to improve performance. I have mislaid the results that made me think this particular opcode is a good candidate; I will go back to reproduce that result and get back to you here. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43684> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
