I prefer "x = '%s%s%s%s' % (a, b, c, d)" when string's number is more than 3 and some of them are literal strings. This has the benefit of being slow both on CPython and PyPy. Although using .format() is even slower. :-) How about adding a class method for catenation:
str.cat(a, b, c, d)
str.cat([a, b, c, d]) # Equivalent to "".join([a, b, c, d])Each argument could be a string or a list of strings.
