I can't reproduce those relative numbers using SVN trunk. Using your
setup code (copied and pasted directly from your message to my
interpreter session) I got the following numbers:
>>> timeit.Timer('d.foo', s).timeit()
1.2362558841705322
>>> timeit.Timer('d2.foo', s).timeit()
1.1634600162506104
>>> timeit.Timer('d.foo', s).timeit()
1.1840031147003174
>>> timeit.Timer('d2.foo', s).timeit()
1.1554200649261475
(a slight speed advantage to the new-style class for __getattr__)
>>> timeit.Timer('d.bar', s).timeit()
0.17601609230041504
>>> timeit.Timer('d2.bar', s).timeit()
0.18697309494018555
>>> timeit.Timer('d.bar', s).timeit()
0.1711127758026123
>>> timeit.Timer('d2.bar', s).timeit()
0.1827549934387207
(very slight speed advantage to the old-style class for the unbound method)
Cheers,
Nick.
