wrt 2039 - I would like to see the free list compaction called from
gc.collect() rather than a function in sys... something you suggested.
As I noted in the comments to 2039, in the presence of pymalloc there is
almost no value to floats having a freelist as far as I can test - other
than in microbenchmarks.
I see from a comment in 2013 that you were testing that patch with a
debug build, which skews the timings. If your performance evaluation of
2039 was also done with a debug build, I suggest you try it with a
non-debug build (which is what I used for all my testing).
