Anyone with a decent level of reading comprehension would have understood that Steven knows that. The implied word is "individual" i.e. "... rather than [individual] code points". Why am I responding to a troll? Probably because out of all his baseless complaints about the FSR, he *did* have one valid point about performance that has now been fixed. Tim Delaney
I don't remember him ever having a valid point, so FTR can we have a reference please. I do remember Steven D'Aprano showing that there was a regression which I flagged up here http://bugs.python.org/issue16061. It was fixed by Serhiy Storchaka, who appears to have forgotten more about Python than I'll ever know, grrr!!! :)
