A couple of minor comments: - “The UTF-8 decoding fast path for ASCII only characters was removed and replaced with a memcpy if the entire string is ASCII.” The fast path would still be useful for mostly-ASCII strings, which are extremely common (unless UTF-8 has become a no-op?).

I posted a patch to re-add it: http://bugs.python.org/issue12819#msg142867
