Awesome! We need timing results on some other platforms (Linux, FreeBSD, MacOSX).

OpenBSD 3.3, i386 2.4Ghz P4 Celeron, 256MB, 128kB cache

before after

1.2 0.64 1.15 0.60 1.16 0.60 1.16 0.60 1.16 0.61 1.15 0.60 1.13 0.61 1.15 0.59 1.14 0.62 1.15 0.60

before: 15773 pystones, 29.9 mPB after: 12690 pystones, 31.4 mPB

Switch back to CVS:

19531, 19379, 19531, 19379, 19305, 19084 pystones, 31.4 mPB

Switch back to Tim's patch:

15015, 15480, 14588 pystones

should not need, but: make clean && make (just make on previous, only listobject.c being recompiled)

Still patched: 13158, 14006, 13193; restart python; 15923, 16722, 16023 restart python; 12953, 13698, 12953, 13513

Well, pystones are all over the map on this box. But the improvement is there for punchit and the parrotbench benchmark is solid across the change.
