-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 While profiling a page full of dynamically-generated links, I was interested to see Python's 'urllib._fast_quote' show up quite high in the total time list. After looking at it, I have found a pretty huge speed win available, posted to Python's SF tracker as bug #1285086: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1285086&group_id=5... Zope makes *heavy* use of urllib.quote (quoting each element of the path in 'absolute_url', for instance), which makes it a particularly interesting speedup for us. I'm attaching the speed test and the patch, for consideration by the Zope development community: if this is enough of a win, we might consider including a patched urllib in Zope2/Zope3 (or monkey-patching urllib.quote).
