My proposal is somewhat the sum of all of your ideas. Well I propose there should a STORE_STATIC_FAST opcode that stores a static variable. Static variable will be declared only once and will be initialized to None (statement syntax will be similar to that of global). It will be initialized in MAKE_FUNCTION. Now it will be set by STORE_STATIC_FAST. Where will the variables be stored? It will have references in locals and __statics__. Therefore LOAD_FAST can find it. So I don't hope there will be performance decrease but performance increase is also not guaranteed. :-)
And if these are thread unsafe then is __defaults__ also thread unsafe? _______________________________________________ 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/6FSYNBSC5HVQYMVCDGKENGT7G2MS4OTI/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
