Re: [Python-Dev] Python 3 optimizations, continued, continued again...

I assume "yes" here means "yes, I'm aware" and not "yes, I'm using Python 2", right? And you're building on top of the existing support for threaded code in order to improve it?

Your assumption is correct, I'm sorry for the sloppiness (I was heading out for lunch.) None of the code is 2.x compatible, all of my work has always targeted Python 3.x. My work does not improve threaded code (as in interpreter dispatch technique), but enables efficient and purely interpretative inline caching via quickening. (So, after execution of BINARY_ADD, I rewrite the specific occurence of the bytecode instruction to a, say, FLOAT_ADD instruction and ensure that my assumption is correct in the FLOAT_ADD instruction.)
