I have previously posted a simple app I am working on, and while I love
python and wxWindows, after checking the memory usage on such a simple
app (system try application launcher) I see that it climbs to over
17mb! I have reduced all my imports to the bare workable minimum and
that just gets it under 17mb. Is there any way that I could compile or
optimize the my program and/or its memory usage?
(Note: I don't have a problem with making this program win32 specific,
as it already is only win32)

.... and ideally, if we could also reduce the size of the DLL, so that
it would only include the widgets actually used, it'd be even nicer.

I don't have much experience with it, but is the PythonWin wrapper to
MFC horrible to use as compared to wxWidgets? If it's good enough and
you don't care about non-Windows platforms, you'll probably save a lot
of RAM and file footprint.

Hello all,
My program uses many millions of integers, and Python is allocating
way too much memory for these. I can't have the performance hit by
using disk, so I figured I'd write a C extension to define a new type.
Problem is, my C knowledge is years old and regardless of my
attempts distutils will not recognise my installation of the MS
compiler.
I am thinking, is there any easier way to use a 5 or 6 bit integer
in python? Even a...

I am a little experienced python programmer (2 months). I am somewhat

will be high.

Any recommendations for a program that will allow me to create the gui

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
