p.s. Speaking of freelists, at one point Serhiy had a patch adding a freelist for single- and I think two-digit ints. Right now the only int creation optimization we have is the array of constant "small ints"; if the int you're constructing isn't one of those, we use the normal slow allocation path with PyObjectAlloc etc. IIRC this patch made things faster. Serhiy, what happened to that patch? Was it actually a bad idea, or did it just get forgotten?
The issue [1] still is open. Patches neither applied nor rejected. They exposes the speed up in microbenchmarks, but it is not large. Up to 40% for iterating over enumerate() and 5-7% for hard integer computations like base85 encoding or spectral_norm benchmark.
