[Python-Dev] Deferred, coalescing, and other very recent reference counting optimization

2020-08-31 Thread Raihan Rasheed Apurbo
In CPython we have reference counting. My question is can we optimize current RC using strategies like Deferred RC and Coalescing? If no then where would I face problems if I try to implement these sorts of strategies? These strategies all depend on the concept that we don't need the exact value

Before experimenting can't I ask someone whether relevant experiments were made or not? if I am not supposed to do that then I totally agree with you, sir. I tried asking in python-ideas and one of the replies was "I gather there have been some experiments along these lines as part of efforts

Thank you sir for directing me to Gilectomy. I will definitely take a look and that and try to design my own experimentations. I definitely could have asked for direction in a better way. I could have asked in a better approach. Thanks for pointing that out as well.

Thank you Larry Hastings for your wonderful detailed answer. Just the answer I was looking for. I am trying to work on memory management in python. CPython reference counting is very hard to modify. Before I start implementing something I just wanted to know whether anybody has tried similar thi
