Berker Peksag, Antoine Pitrou (who implemented the discussed change) and me are opposed to backporting this optimization, so I close the issue as WONTFIX.

The only known workaround is to upgrade to Python 3, sorry!

Benjamin: Please speakup if you want this optimization in the next Python 2.7 release ;-)


> The original patch is quite delicate and I'm not comfortable backporting to 2.7.

Oh, the "byte/character ratio" "hack"... I'm not confortable with this one neither, even if it seems like it works on Python 3 (I didn't recall any bug report related to this).
