Mark Dickinson added the comment: Now benchmarks and special casing for Py_ssize_t values needed. I thought about that, but I don't think it's worth it. I did some quick timings, and as expected the new version of slice.indices is somewhat slower than the original. But I think adding a

Mark Dickinson added the comment: New patch that fixes the error message for badly typed slice arguments. Also tweaks a couple of other details: - replace Py_GE with Py_GT, Py_LE with Py_LT in the out-of-range comparisons, as suggested by Serhiy; this also makes it more closely match the

Mark Dickinson added the comment: For 2.7, I don't see any problem with raising OverflowError for a length that's sys.maxsize, since it's hard to have sequences larger than that anyway. For 3.x, I'd also see this behaviour as reasonable, and not a bug. If it's raising OverflowError for
