YIELD_VALUE Byte Code
Hi, I am not sure if this is the right newsgroup, so if not don't hesitate to tell me. I am developed a Python to C compiler, so that Byte Code files automatically can be translated into C Extension Modules. (And it works pretty well --> http://www.coremountains.com/products/bytecoat/) While developing, I fou... 18 Nov 2009 01:17

mySQL access speed
Hello, I have some programs doing a lot sql IO in some mySQL databases. This works very fine and the DBAPI is quite simple to understand. Now I came to the point where I had to insert millions of lines into a table. My first aproach was to insert the data using executemany(). That's not bad and fairly simple t... 17 Nov 2009 01:45

SCGIServer and unusal termination

The ol' [[]] * 500 bug...
....just bit me in the "fuzzy posterior". The best I can come up with is the hideous lol = [[] for _ in xrange(500)] Is there something better? What did one do before comprehensions were available? I suppose in that case one would have to go all the way with lol = [None] * 500 for i in xrang... 14 Nov 2009 13:19

run all scripts in sub-directory as subroutines?
This works fine, but in the sub-modules the sys.path appropriately returns the same as from the parent, I want them to know their own file names. How??

Psyco on 64-bit machines
I have a Python program that runs too slow for some inputs. I would like to speed it up without rewriting any code. Psyco seemed like exactly what I need, until I saw that it only works on a 32-bit architecture. I work in an environment of Sun Ultras that are all 64- bit. However, the Psyco docs say this: "Psyco... 16 Nov 2009 09:01
