json decoder speedups, any time left for 2.6?
by Bob Ippolito 24 Sep '08

24 Sep '08

I'm out of town this week for a conference (ICFP/CUFP in Victoria) and my hotel's connection has been bad enough such that I can't get any Real Work done so I've managed to hammer on the json library's decoding quite a bit instead. I just released simplejson 1.9.3 which improves decoding performance by about 2x and I've got some more changes along the way in trunk for 1.9.4 that will increase it even further (over 3x my original 1.9.2 benchmark perf). How much time do I have left to get this into Python 2.6? FWIW the changes are all on the Python side, no C code has been harmed (yet). The test suite still passes of course. Added bonus is that simplejson trunk only uses the public and documented re interface, no more sre scanner stuff. -bob (I had originally sent this to python-dev out of habit without CCing here, and it appears I'm not currently subscribed there so it's in the moderation queue. Sorry about that!)

Hello. Can I commit VC6 related patch without review? I want to bump up external library versions (bsddb, sqlite3 etc) to follow PCBuild. Thank you.

trunk and 3.0 branch frozen
by Barry Warsaw 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm freezing the trunk and 3.0 branches to do 2.6rc2 and 3.0rc1 tonight. Please do not commit to either tree unless you check with me first on irc, #python-dev @ freenode. Mark H is right now looking at 4 test failures on Windows: bsddb3, sys, site and wsgiref. Other than that, 2.6 full of green buildbots and has no release blockers open. I'm going to do 3.0rc1 even though we have some deferred blockers for 3.0. The 3.0 bots look pretty green, so I think it's worth it. Thanks, - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBSNGwXHEjvBPtnXfVAQKDpwQAq12eDKYrSm344OlAb5w5ZdpJc6EBh3mF 1rMTadiO8U2lVhVIrFzc8PeX60POqmIuTZADoh/Xu+hOQxPkYO+weUxLVNVZyohH 1hPjhU5fAFXVvEmWp05vVVwkZ/fSr7kCbmYiA3/uZI72ePg+WcCP6esdGkkdz8zf ZP2KzEXwjHw= =pykn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

deferred blockers
by Antoine Pitrou 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

Hi all, Now 2.6rc1 is released, shouldn't the issues which have "deferred blocker" status be put back in the "release blocker" category? cheers Antoine.

patches for review: OS/2 EMX port updates for 2.6
by Andrew MacIntyre 14 Sep '08

14 Sep '08

I'd appreciate a committer review of the 2 patches attached to issue 3868 (http://bugs.python.org/issue3868), so that I can get them in for 2.6 final. The build related patches only affect files in PC/os2emx (not used by any other part of Python, so could be checked in without any impact), but there are also some source related patches... In passing I'll note I've added issues 3863 (http://bugs.python.org/issue3863) and 3864 (http://bugs.python.org/issue3864), which both affect FreeBSD. Unfortunately I can't make much time to dig into these further at the moment :-(. Thanks, Andrew. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, guys. I just have broken my left arm last saturday (sliding swimming pools are dangerous :)). I will be barely online for the next 6 weeks.
