I am talking about a modification to listobject.c, also.
So you suggest that the list type become circular??? That will cause a major ABI incompatibility, as all modules that use PyList_GET_SIZE need to be recompiled. In addition, it causes a slow-down for the standard use of lists. So you would make the general case slower, just to support a special case. Why are you proposing that? Regards, Martin
