What about the small integers cache? The C serialisation generates several PyLong objects that would normally reside in the cache. Is this handled somewhere? I guess the cache could entirely be loaded from the data segment. And the same would have to be done for interned strings. Basically anything that CPython only wants to have one instance of. That would severely limit the application of this optimisation to external modules, though. I don't see a way how they could load their data structures from the data segment without duplicating all sorts of "singletons".
