[issue38278] Need a more efficient way to perform dict.get(key, default)

I also suggest you to not focus on such micro-benchmarks. It's not relevant to make a whole application faster. Use PyPy if you care about performances. PyPy has a very efficient implementation for dictionary and it's JIT compiler can go way further than CPython. In some cases, PyPy can even replace hash table lookup with array access:
