[issue7332] python script segment fault at PyMarshal_ReadLastObjectFromFile in import_submodule

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

A small benchmark shows no difference in startup time when disabling the stack buffer. (this is on Linux: of course, the problem might be that the glibc is heavily optimized)

The benchmark was a simple:
$ time ./python -E -c "import logging, pydoc, xmlrpclib, urllib, urllib2, unittest, doctest, profile, smtplib, httplib, fractions, decimal, codecs, difflib, argparse, distutils, email, imaplib, idlelib, json, _pyio, poplib, ftplib"
