I changed the cython script a bit to use a more naive implementation without memset. Now it is always significantly faster than bytes(sorted(my_bytes)). $ python -m timeit -c "from bytes_sort import bytes_sort" "bytes_sort(b'')" 500000 loops, best of 5: 495 nsec per loop $ python -m timeit -c "from bytes_sort import bytes_sort" "bytes_sort(b'abc')" 500000 loops, best of 5: 519 nsec per loop $ python -m timeit -c "from bytes_sort import bytes_sort" "bytes_sort(b'Let\'s test a proper string now. One that has some value to be sorted.')" 500000 loops, best of 5: 594 nsec per loop ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45902> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
