IMO the primary problem was related to the fact the "patch" was too big to be reviewed. Unfortunately it was my first attempt, and having worked alone I introduced too much optimizations and (heavy) changes to the code. An incremental approach should have worked better, albeit I believe that such drastic move from the consolidated bytecodes to the new wordcodes would have produced strong resistance anyway. > It also had a lot of other ideas like *_INT instructions which allowed > having oparg to be a constant int rather than needing to LOAD_CONST one. > This, specifically, was an experiment that I made with WPython 1.1, which I recommend to do not follow. There are other, more general, ways to speedup the execution when dealing with integers. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
