* SF #904720: dict.update should take a 2-tuple sequence like dict.__init_Raymond Hettinger2004-03-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | (Championed by Bob Ippolito.) The update() method for mappings now accepts all the same argument forms as the dict() constructor. This includes item lists and/or keyword arguments.
* SF patch #875689: >100k alloc wasted on startupRaymond Hettinger2004-02-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | (Contributed by Mike Pall.) Make sure fill_free_list() is called only once rather than 106 times when pre-allocating small ints.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | which can be reviewed via http://coding.derkeiler.com/Archive/Python/comp.lang.python/2003-12/1011.html Duncan Booth investigated, and discovered that an "optimisation" was in fact a pessimisation for small numbers of elements in a source list, compared to not having the optimisation, although with large numbers of elements in the source list the optimisation was quite beneficial. He posted his change to comp.lang.python (but not to SF). Further research has confirmed his assessment that the optimisation only becomes a net win when the source list has more than 100 elements. I also found that the optimisation could apply to tuples as well, but the gains only arrive with source tuples larger than about 320 elements and are nowhere near as significant as the gains with lists, (~95% gain @ 10000 elements for lists, ~20% gain @ 10000 elements for tuples) so I haven't proceeded with this. The code as it was applied the optimisation to list subclasses as well, and this also appears to be a net loss for all reasonable sized sources (~80-100% for up to 100 elements, ~20% for more than 500 elements; I tested up to 10000 elements). Duncan also suggested special casing empty lists, which I've extended to all empty sequences. On the basis that list_fill() is only ever called with a list for the result argument, testing for the source being the destination has now happens before testing source types.

* Patch by Jp Calderone:Guido van Rossum2003-04-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | - The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses. See SF patch #658327. This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
* - Several methods of nntplib.NNTP have grown an optional file argumentGuido van Rossum2003-04-191-0/+1

| | | | | | | This can cause core dumps when Python runs. Python relies on the 754- (and C99-) mandated default "non-stop" mode for FP exceptions. This patch from Ben Laurie disables at least one FP exception on FreeBSD at Python startup time.
