First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use + the special Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of + lock contention. Second, general code cleanup to eliminate + duplicated code. In particular, TclDecrRefCount now uses + TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code, so it is now + identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount. + + * generic/tclObj.c: Changed Tcl_NewObj so it uses the + TclNewObj macro instead of duplicating the code.
