[issue26077] Make slicing of immutable structures return a view instead of a copy

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

The support of sharing a content between different tuples requires changing the structure of the tuple object, allocating additional block for every tuple, adding a level of indirection and reference counting. This will increase memory consumption, creating and access time for all tuples. All this is critically important for Python interpreter. I think this idea has no a chance.
