PythonOptimize flag

[Jakub Labath]

Hi,

Has anybody tried running the mod_python and django with the
PythonOptimize flag enabled?
Did it make any difference? Anything else interesting came out of it?

Hey Jakub,

I've never tried this personally but have always wondered about it.
One thing it would affect, off the top of my head, is the various
"assert" calls within the database API. For example, a call to
Model.objects.get() asserts that the list of returned values has at
most one element. This shouldn't be a problem if you can guarantee
your get() calls should always return one element, based on the
parameters you're sending.
