This is the same Itamar who, in the talk I linked a few days ago (http://ln-s.net/D+u) extolled buffer as a very real performance improvement in fast python networking, and asked for broader and more complete support for buffers, rather than their removal.

A bunch of people, myself included, want to use Python as a persistent network server. Proper support for reading into already-allocated memory, and non-copying strings are pretty indispensable for serious production use.
