[pypy-issue] [issue1721] Too aggressive constant folding?

[INADA Naoki]

Yes.
The problem is large foldable constant (e.g. b'x' * (2**32)) in function not called is calculated.
This is nasty when I skip tests requires large memory.

@pytest.mark.skipif(True, reason="This test requires very larege memory")
def test_largebynary():
    x = b'x' * (2**32)
    do_something(x)
