I was hoping that when the compiler finds decorators with wrapers that have the same signature it can some how "magically" combine them into one function (which gets called at run time) and not have 5 nested function calls. That is similar to what I will have to do eventually. Given python's dynamic nature, I'm sure there are reasons why this is not done. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
