[Python-Dev] very slow compare of recursive objects

[Neal Norwitz]

Could someone take a look at the patch attached to this bug report?

        http://python.org/sf/625698

It fixes a problem comparing recursive objects by adding a check in
PyObject_RichCompare.  Seems to work fine for the specific problem,
however, it still doesn't help this case:

        a = []
        b = []
        for i in range(2): a.append(a)
        for i in range(2): b.append(b)
        print a == b

Thanks,
Neal
