> While I'm looking Python's memory usage, I found some dicts which key is not interned "_fields", "_ast" and "__modules__".

AST objects are supposed to be temporary. Interning strings used in the AST processor would make these strings immortal and so increase the memory usage, no?

What is the purpose of the patch? Speedup or reduce the memory usage?
