When I use @dataclass(frozen=True), I manually add a __slots__ attribute. I presume this makes the resulting objects similar in size to NamedTuples, but I haven't done any measurements (and not sure how to measure this anyway). I wonder: is it possible for @dataclass to have an option slots=True? And perhaps frozen=True should imply slots=True (would this cause any backwards compatibility problems?). _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/OBFNLB363DQM5YELR46M3OI3BNKIKSPB/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
