Summary
This includes new
internal_bench
benchmarks for how quickly micropython can process class definitions, created in order to gauge the performance penalty for implementing__set_name__
in the different ways proposed in #15503, #16806, and #16816.Testing
I've tested these benchmarks using the unix port inside WSL on my development machine, with the following results:
Trade-offs and Alternatives
Due to the overall slow speed of class creation in general, the
class_create
tests reduce the number of iterations from 20,000,000 to just 500,000; but this should still be wide enough to give the results adequate statistical significance (especially on non-multitasking microcontrollers).
