[Python-ideas] Re: Make `del x` an expression evaluating to `x`

[Marco Sulla via Python-ideas]

Well, so all this discussion is only for freeing _one_ memory location earlier?
Seriously... as the other users already said, if someone really need
it, he can use normal loops instead of comprehensions and split
complex expression so temporary objects are immediately free.
Furthermore, 2x speedup observations are done by benchmarks. In the
real world, how can you be sure that L2 cache is not already filled
up? :-)
