My mentee @xvxvxvxvxv noticed that iterating over array.array is
slightly faster than iterating over bytes. Looking at the source I
observed that arrayiter_next() calls `getitem(ao, it->index++)` wheras
striter_next() uses the idiom (paraphrased)
item = PyLong_FromLong(seq->ob_sval[it->it_index]);
if (item != NULL)
++it->it_next;
return item;
I'm not 100% sure but I think that the second version has fewer
opportunity for the CPU to overlap the `index++` operation with the
rest of the code (which in both cases involves a call). So here I am
optimistically incrementing the index -- if the PyLong_FromLong() call
fails, this will leave the iterator pointing at the next byte, but
honestly I doubt that anyone would seriously consider resuming use of
the iterator after that kind of failure (it would have to be a
MemoryError). And the author of arrayiter_next() made the same
consideration (or never ever gave it a thought :-).
With this, a loop like
for _ in b: pass
is now slightly *faster* than the same thing over an equivalent array,
rather than slightly *slower* (in both cases a few percent).
Walk down the MRO backwards to find the type that originally defined the final `tp_setattro`, then make sure we are not jumping over intermediate C-level bases with the Python-level call.

* Merge gen and frame state variables into one.
* Replace stack pointer with depth in PyFrameObject. Makes code easier to read and saves a word of memory.
* Add failing test.
* bpo-29590: fix stack trace for gen.throw() with yield from (GH-NNNN)
When gen.throw() is called on a generator after a "yield from", the
intermediate stack trace entries are lost. This commit fixes that.
Always create the empty bytes string singleton.
Optimize PyBytes_FromStringAndSize(str, 0): it no longer has to check
if the empty string singleton was created or not, it is always
available.
Add functions:
* _PyBytes_Init()
* bytes_get_empty(), bytes_new_empty()
* bytes_create_empty_string_singleton()
* unicode_create_empty_string_singleton()
_Py_unicode_state: rename empty structure member to empty_string.
Py_InitializeFromConfig() now always creates the empty tuple
singleton as soon as possible.
Optimize PyTuple_New(0): it no longer has to check if the empty tuple
was created or not, it is always creatd.
* Add tuple_create_empty_tuple_singleton() function.
* Add tuple_get_empty() function.
* Remove state parameter of tuple_alloc().
Each interpreter now has its own Unicode latin1 singletons.
Remove "ifdef EXPERIMENTAL_ISOLATED_SUBINTERPRETERS"
and "ifdef LATIN1_SINGLETONS": always enable latin1 singletons.
Optimize unicode_result_ready(): only attempt to get a latin1
singleton for PyUnicode_1BYTE_KIND.
Functions of unicodeobject.c, like PyUnicode_New(), no longer check
if the empty Unicode singleton has been initialized or not. Consider
that it is always initialized. The Unicode API must not be used
before _PyUnicode_Init() or after _PyUnicode_Fini().
Each interpreter now has its own MemoryError free list: it is not
longer shared by all interpreters.
Add _Py_exc_state structure and PyInterpreterState.exc_state member.
Move also errnomap into _Py_exc_state.
* Revert "bpo-40521: Make the empty frozenset per interpreter (GH-21068)"
This reverts commit 261cfedf76.
* bpo-40521: Empty frozensets are no longer singletons
* Complete the removal of the frozenset singleton
Each interpreter now has its own empty bytes string and single byte
character singletons.
Replace STRINGLIB_EMPTY macro with STRINGLIB_GET_EMPTY() macro.
Each interpreter now has its own dict free list:
* Move dict free lists into PyInterpreterState.
* Move PyDict_MAXFREELIST define to pycore_interp.h
* Add _Py_dict_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyDict_ClearFreeList() and _PyDict_Fini().
* In debug mode, ensure that the dict free lists are not used after
_PyDict_Fini() is called.
* Remove "#ifdef EXPERIMENTAL_ISOLATED_SUBINTERPRETERS".
Unexpected errors in calling the __iter__ method are no longer
masked by TypeError in the "in" operator and functions
operator.contains(), operator.indexOf() and operator.countOf().
The PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() macros become aliases to,
respectively, PyObject_Init() and PyObject_InitVar() functions.
Rename _PyObject_INIT() and _PyObject_INIT_VAR() static inline
functions to, respectively, _PyObject_Init() and _PyObject_InitVar(),
and move them to pycore_object.h. Remove their return value:
their return type becomes void.
The _datetime module is now built with the Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined.
Remove an outdated comment on _Py_tracemalloc_config.
In GH-2866, _Py_Bit_Length() was added to pymath.h for lack of a better
location. GH-20518 added a more appropriate header file for bit utilities. It
also shows how to properly use intrinsics. This allows reconsidering bpo-29782.
* Move the function to the new header.
* Changed return type to match __builtin_clzl() and reviewed usage.
* Use intrinsics where available.
* Pick a fallback implementation suitable for inlining.
The PEP 353, written in 2005, introduced PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T. Python no
longer supports macOS 10.4 and Visual Studio 2010, but requires more
recent macOS and Visual Studio versions. In 2020 with Python 3.10, it
is now safe to use directly "%zu" to format size_t and "%zi" to
format Py_ssize_t.
* Rename pycore_byteswap.h to pycore_bitutils.h.
* Move popcount_digit() to pycore_bitutils.h as _Py_popcount32().
* _Py_popcount32() uses GCC and clang builtin function if available.
* Add unit tests to _Py_popcount32().
In debug mode, ensure that free lists are no longer used after being
finalized. Set numfree to -1 in finalization functions
(eg. _PyList_Fini()), and then check that numfree is not equal to -1
before using a free list (e.g list_dealloc()).
Each interpreter now has its own asynchronous generator free lists:
* Move async gen free lists into PyInterpreterState.
* Move _PyAsyncGen_MAXFREELIST define to pycore_interp.h
* Add _Py_async_gen_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyAsyncGen_ClearFreeLists
and _PyAsyncGen_Fini().
Each interpreter now has its own list free list:
* Move list numfree and free_list into PyInterpreterState.
* Add _Py_list_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyList_ClearFreeList()
and _PyList_Fini().
* Remove "#ifdef EXPERIMENTAL_ISOLATED_SUBINTERPRETERS".
* _PyGC_Fini() clears gcstate->garbage list which can be stored in
the list free list. Call _PyGC_Fini() before _PyList_Fini() to
prevent leaking this list.
Each interpreter now has its own frame free list:
* Move frame free list into PyInterpreterState.
* Add _Py_frame_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyFrame_ClearFreeList()
and _PyFrame_Fini().
* Remove "#if PyFrame_MAXFREELIST > 0".
* Remove "#ifdef EXPERIMENTAL_ISOLATED_SUBINTERPRETERS".
Each interpreter now has its own float free list:
* Move tuple numfree and free_list into PyInterpreterState.
* Add _Py_float_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyFloat_ClearFreeList()
and _PyFloat_Fini().
Each interpreter now has its own tuple free lists:
* Move tuple numfree and free_list arrays into PyInterpreterState.
* Define PyTuple_MAXSAVESIZE and PyTuple_MAXFREELIST macros in
pycore_interp.h.
* Add _Py_tuple_state structure. Pass it explicitly to tuple_alloc().
* Add tstate parameter to _PyTuple_ClearFreeList()
* Each interpreter now has its own empty tuple singleton.
* bpo-29882: Add an efficient popcount method for integers
* Update 'sign bit' and versionadded in docs
* Add entry to whatsnew document
* Doc: use positive example, mention population count
* Minor cleanups of the core code
* Move popcount_digit closer to where it's used
* Use z instead of self after conversion
* Add 'absolute value' and 'population count' to docstring
* Fix clinic error about missing summary line
* Ensure popcount_digit is portable with 64-bit ints

Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of int.
Also revert bpo-26202 and make attributes start, stop and step of the range
object having exact type int.
Add private function _PyNumber_Index() which preserves the old behavior
of PyNumber_Index() for performance to use it in the conversion functions
like PyLong_AsLong().
Convert Py_REFCNT() and Py_SIZE() macros to static inline functions.
They cannot be used as l-value anymore: use Py_SET_REFCNT() and
Py_SET_SIZE() to set an object reference count and size.
Replace &Py_SIZE(self) with &((PyVarObject*)self)->ob_size
in arraymodule.c.
This change is backward incompatible on purpose, to prepare the C API
for an opaque PyObject structure.
* Fix outdated __int__ and nb_int references in comments
* Also update C-API documentation
* Add back missing 'method' word
* Remove .. deprecated notices
This updates _PyErr_ChainStackItem() to use _PyErr_SetObject()
instead of _PyErr_ChainExceptions(). This prevents a hang in
certain circumstances because _PyErr_SetObject() performs checks
to prevent cycles in the exception context chain while
_PyErr_ChainExceptions() doesn't.
When an asyncio.Task is cancelled, the exception traceback now
starts with where the task was first interrupted. Previously,
the traceback only had "depth one."
Move PyInterpreterState.fs_codec into a new
PyInterpreterState.unicode structure.
Give a name to the fs_codec structure and use this structure in
unicodeobject.c.
The previous commits on bpo-29587 got exception chaining working
with gen.throw() in the `yield` case. This patch also gets the
`yield from` case working.
As a consequence, implicit exception chaining now also works in
the asyncio scenario of awaiting on a task when an exception is
already active.
Tests are included for both the asyncio case and the pure
generator-only case.
Avoid unnecessary overhead in _PyDict_GetItemIdWithError() by calling
_PyDict_GetItem_KnownHash() instead of the more generic PyDict_GetItemWithError(),
since we already know the hash of interned strings.
* bpo-37986: Improve perfomance of PyLong_FromDouble()
* Use strict bound check for safety and symmetry
* Remove possibly outdated performance claims
