22717dffba #837577: note cryptic return value of spawn*e on invalid env dicts. 2009-03-31 18:26:55 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith
2839985c7e The unittest.TestCase.assertEqual() now displays the differences in lists,
tuples, dicts and sets on failure.

Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging.  Contributed in
by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

Discussion lives in http://bugs.python.org/issue2578.

dbf95a3643 A fix for issue 1974, inspired by the patch from Andi Albrecht (aalbrecht),
though with some changes by me.  This patch should not be back ported or
forward ported.  It's a bit too risky for 2.6 and 3.x does things fairly
differently.

f8387af262 Issue #4688: Add a heuristic so that tuples and dicts containing only
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.

(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)
