I wrote: """ I will post a link to a complete example once I have done the AST transformations etc. I hope this will be useful to readers of this list. I didn't find such an example, so maybe the next asker will find it... """
Finally got time to do this. The example can be found at: https://github.com/akaariai/ast_model In the example I rewrote a small part of Django's model __init__ to use: self.field1, self.field2, ... = args instead of: for f_name, val in izip(field_names, args): setattr(self, f_name, val) The speedup of that rewrote is about 50% for a model having 10 fields. The example implementation might not be optimal, but it seems to work. I hope it will be useful to the readers of this list. It was a nice learning experience for me.
