"all" versus "select number".<br>

So I'm guessing the proposal is to freeze all the modules that
Python imports just to get itself running, which would consume no
additional memory when frozen, and saves time per your performance
numbers, rather than the whole stdlib, which is what is sort of
implied by "all".</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, exactly. </div></div></div></div>
