Subj : [$] Explicit lazy imports for Python To : All From : LWN.net Date : Tue Oct 21 2025 06:40:08 Importing modules in Python is ubiquitous; most Python programs start with at least a few import statements. But the performance impact of those imports can be large-and may be entirely wasted effort if the symbols imported end up being unused. There are multiple ways to lazily import modules, including one in the standard library, but none of them are part of the Python language itself. That may soon change, if the recently proposed PEP˙810 ("Explicit lazy imports") is approved. https://lwn.net/Articles/1041120/ --- SBBSecho 3.29-Linux * Origin: Palantir * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FL * (86:200/23) .
