instantiated code objects will continue to raise an event, and audit event
handlers should inspect or collect the raw marshal data. This reduces a

List sorting now uses the merge-ordering strategy from Munro and Wild's
`` powersort() `` . Unlike the former strategy, this is provably near-optimal
in the entropy of the distribution of run lengths. Most uses of
`` list.sort() `` probably won't see a significant time difference, but may
see significant improvements in cases where the former strategy was
exceptionally poor. However, as these are all fast linear-time
approximations to a problem that's inherently at best quadratic-time to
solve truly optimally, it's also possible to contrive cases where the former
strategy did better.

bos.rte appears to have a builddate in both LPAR and WPAR so this fileset is
2021-10-06 14:40:09 -03:00
queried rather than bos.mp64. To prevent a similar situation (no builddate
2021-10-05 09:42:52 -03:00
in ODM) a value (9988) sufficient for completing a build is provided. Patch
by M Felt.

`` WithProcessesTestSharedMemory.test_shared_memory_basics `` test was
ignored, because `` self.assertEqual(sms.size, sms2.size) `` line was failing.
It is now removed and test is unskipped.
The main motivation for this line to be removed from the test is that the
`` size `` of `` SharedMemory `` is not ever guaranteed to be the same. It is
decided by the platform.
