(anyone still thinking about removing the block stack?).
I'm not any more. My thought was that it would be good for performance, by reducing the memory allocation overhead for frames enough to allow pymalloc to be used instead of the platform malloc.
I did something similar to reduce the frame size to under 256 bytes (don't recall if I made a patch or not) and it had no overall effect on perf.
Hey, me too! I also came to the same conclusion. Cheers, mwh -- The ultimate laziness is not using Perl. That saves you so much work you wouldn't believe it if you had never tried it. -- Erik Naggum, comp.lang.lisp
