 Several performance enhancements have been added:
 
-.. * A new :program:`configure` option, :option:`--with-computed-gotos`,
-   compiles the main bytecode interpreter loop using a new dispatch
-   mechanism that gives speedups of up to 20%, depending on the system
-   and benchmark.  The new mechanism is only supported on certain
-   compilers, such as gcc, SunPro, and icc.
-
 * A new opcode was added to perform the initial setup for
   :keyword:`with` statements, looking up the :meth:`__enter__` and
   :meth:`__exit__` methods.  (Contributed by Benjamin Peterson.)
