The Python 3 version should be a lot faster.

perf.py already uses --use_cpickle:

Running fastpickle... INFO:root:Running ../cpython/builds/3.3/bin/python3.3 performance/bm_pickle.py -n 5 --use_cpickle pickle INFO:root:Running ../cpython/builds/2.7-wide/bin/python performance/bm_pickle.py -n 5 --use_cpickle pickle

One thing that might make a change is using -1 for the protocol instead of 2, but that means losing the perk of perf.py doing all of the calculations, etc. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
