CPython contains many checks to ensure that a string always use the most effecient storage, especially in debug mode. The C API should not allow to create a string using an inefficient storage, unless you "abuse" the C API :-D I'm not sure what do you test. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45025> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
