We add freelist support to
_PyLong_New
(this was missed/left out in #126868). On the pyperformance suite this increases the percentage of allocations from freelist by roughly 1%. For comparison, the addition of the freelist to_PyLong_FromMedium
increased the percentage by roughly 20%. Also note that_PyLong_New
is used in the newPyLongWriter_Create
(see https://peps.python.org/pep-0757/), so usage with external packages might be a bit higher.Microbenchmark:
