[New-bugs-announce] [issue32492] C Fast path for namedtuple's property/itemgetter pair

[Raymond Hettinger]

New submission from Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com>:

Attribute access for named tuples can be made as fast as attribute access of instances of classes with slots.  All that is needed is a C subclass of property with it own __get__ that directly look's up the tuple field using PyTuple_GET_ITEM using an index stored in a C struct rather than as an integer object.
