The new codepath for the BYTEARRAY8 bytecode is missing memoization:

>>> import pickletools, pickle
>>> b = (bytearray(b"abc"), ) * 2
>>> b1, b2 = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(b, 5)) # C version
>>> b1 is b2
True
(bytearray(b'abc'), bytearray(b'abc'))
>>> b1, b2 = pickle.loads(pickle._dumps(b, 5)) # python version
>>> b1 is b2 # :-(
False

Found it because PyPy is using pickle.py with no C implementation. I'm preparing a patch.
