I finally got around to applying Oren's patch. Nice work, BTW! Here are
before-and-after timings for the test program I posted before. This is
current CVS, release build, Win98SE, MSVC 6, 866MHz:
seconds
function before after % speedup
-------- ------ ----- ---------
fastlocals 2.40 2.39 0
globals_via_load_global 3.27 2.53 29
locals_via_load_name 3.46 2.66 30
globals_via_load_name 4.56 2.82 62
builtins_via_load_global 5.99 4.04 48
builtins_via_load_name 7.12 4.84 47
I only care about the XYZ_load_global times (speeding LOAD_NAME is like
speeding multiplication by 1531 <wink>), and these numbers are nice.
