[pypy-dev] SmallTuples

[Alex Gaynor]

I have a question about SmallTuples.  Why do we have multiple classes,
rather than doing the "hack" of mallocing a single block of memory for the
entirety of the object, since it is immutable and we can know the needed
space up front, CPython uses this "hack" for strs for example.
