Hi everybody,
This is My First Python(tm), so please be kind! Attached you should
find a patch to cache the PDE values during IA32 address translation.
The resulting speed-up is modest but noteworthy.
I've only enabled caching for non-PAE systems, but it should be easy
enough to copy over to PAE systems as well. What do you think? As a
bonus, this code also includes some endian-neutrality-changes (if
there is such a word) to make the code work better on my Mac.
Hopefully it won't screw up anything else.
Please let me know what you think!
cheers,
