Hi,
I saw this free lists implementation this morning in the floatobject and
listobject sources,
which already handles the reuse of objects. I must admit I like this
implementation. It's pretty smart.
And yes I'm a little bit disappointed because it reduces the benefit of
my idea a lot.
Regards,
Martin

If this idea is well implemented I expect a big performance improvement for
all Python applications.
Given the free lists already maintained for several builtin types in
the reference implementation, I suspect you may be disappointed on
that front :)
(While object creation overhead certainly isn't trivial, the
interpreter's already pretty aggressive about repurposing previously
allocated and initialised memory for new instances)
Cheers,
Nick.
