[issue12190] intern filenames in bytecode

[Mike Solomon]

Mike Solomon <msolo at gmail.com> added the comment:

If you have a file with say a hundred functions, and each function contains
the full path of that file on disk, your pyc file will contain about
(100*(path_size+overhead)) bytes. In some cases, this is pretty
significant.
