Currently only objects with
Py_TYPE(obj)->tp_basicsize == sizeof(PyObject)
are allowed to have inline values.This PR changes that to allow any object where all instances of the class have the same size to have inline values.
Performance is in the noise, but the stats show a clear reduction in the number of
LOAD_ATTR
s executed.Oddly, the number of
LOAD_ATTR_INSTANCE_VALUE
s executed is roughly unchanged, the new specializations being for class attributes. Fixing the shadowing issue should improve things further and show an increase inLOAD_ATTR_INSTANCE_VALUE
s.
