Armin is working on speeding up the patch. I recommend holding off until we can measure the performance impact of a revised patch. If it only affects cyclic structures, it's no big deal. But if it impacts normal equality tests, that warrants a little more discussion. Another thought is that it would be prudent to see how much breakage can be expected. For example, perhaps the patch can tried on an older python to see if Zope can deal with it. Otherwise, the patch is elegant and simplifies the code quite a bit. Also, Armin's well written proposal ought to be preserved somewhere (like Tim's listsort.txt file). Raymond Hettinger
