| This is a reminder for the comment on top of ceval.c: /* XXX TO DO: XXX speed up searching for keywords by using a dictionary XXX document it! */ It was also suggested to disallow subclasses of str in variable names, in order to optimize comparisons. This restriction is not necessary if a dict lookup is used: comparisons are less frequent and will often succeed when comparing pointers of interned strings. | ||

| Amaury, you may take a look at the patch in issue #1819. Also, dict lookups have a big overhead compared to raw pointer compares, I'm not sure naively converting all kwargs handling to dict lookups would make things faster. | ||
