Hi,
performance/bm_pickle.py of the CPython benchmark suite uses the pickle protocol 2 by default. Why not always testing the highest protocol?
In Python 3.5, the highest protocol is 4 which is more efficient than the protocol 2.
Is it a deliberate choice to test exactly the same thing between Python 2 and Python 3?
