At the moment, I'm trying to, but 2.5 HEAD keeps failing mysteriously on the tests I try to time, and even going into an infinite loop consuming all my memory - since the NFS sprint. Am I allowed to be grumpy here, and repeat that speed should not be used to justify bugs? I'm proposing a bug fix, I honestly don't care about 0.5% of speed. With a benchmark that passed, and that heavily uses instance and class attribute look-ups (richards), I don't even see any relevant difference. > and assessments of whether there are real benefits for everyday Python > users. It would have saved me two hours-long debugging sessions, and I consider myself an everyday Python user, so yes, I think so.
