[New-bugs-announce] [issue40725] Documentation: Benchmark table in "What's new in Python 3.9" has weird values

[Jakub Beránek]

New submission from Jakub Beránek <berykubik at gmail.com>:

The "What's new in Python 3.9" page displays a table with microbenchmark results between different Python version (https://docs.python.org/3.9/whatsnew/3.9.html#optimizations).

The values provided for Python 3.4 are suspicious, as they are several times smaller than all following Python versions. Therefore it looks like Python got much slower in the recent releases, although the opposite is probably true.
