<cfbolz> antocuni: is there a sprint summary?
<antocuni> not really :)
<antocuni> a very short summary is that we worked on two main things
<antocuni> 1. the HPyField branch
<antocuni> ah, maybe 3
<antocuni> 2. ronan's hpy-refactor-exceptions pypy branch. We concluded that we can probably merge it because the performance penalty is very small and/or inexistent
<antocuni> 3. investigate pypy performance on the piconumpy benchmark. It turned out that pypy is very suboptimal w.r.t allocations
<antocuni> point 3 is summarized in this issue: https://foss.heptapod.net/pypy/pypy/-/issues/3542
<antocuni> the issue has been somewhat treacherously to arigato in the hope that he feels the need to solve it 😅
<antocuni> *has been assigned
<mattip> about the double allocation: isn't this similar to the cpyext strategy for bytes and unicode (where we allocate an extra bufffer for the data)?
<mattip> "compact unicode"
