[Python-Dev] Re: Is anyone using 15-bit PyLong digits (PYLONG_BITS_IN_DIGIT=15)?

rerunning a mere few of those in --rigorous mode for more runs does not significantly improve the stddev so I'm not going to let that finish.

The one benchmark that is bigint-heavy is pidigits AFAIK, so you might want to re-run that one if you want a more rigorous confirmation that there is no regression.

my recommendation: proceed with removing 15-bit bignum digit support. 30-bit only future with simpler better code here we come.

Sounds reasonable to me as well. Regards Antoine.
