> hmm, I really don't buy the space-saving argument.  you are saving some space with shorter path names, nothing more. so why do you introduce this option?

No, compileall is run with '-b', so there are no  PEP 3147 __pycache__ directories, and with an installation of 53M where the test suite is excluded, that saves 30M (see my previous msg).

IMHO this option is very useful on mobile devices and embedded systems where space is sparse.
