% ./python.exe -mtimeit 'isinstance(3, int)' 1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.269 usec per loop % ../release25-maint/python.exe -mtimeit 'isinstance(3, int)'1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.335 usec per loop So I'd say its no longer 4x slower these days. Looking at the Object/abstract.c it appears the fix to this has already been checked in. PyObject_IsInstance already has this in it: /* Quick test for an exact match / if (Py_TYPE(inst) == (PyTypeObject )cls) return 1; closing.

% ./python.exe -mtimeit 'isinstance(3, int)'
1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.269 usec per loop
% ../release25-maint/python.exe -mtimeit 'isinstance(3, int)'1000000
loops, best of 3: 0.335 usec per loop

So I'd say its no longer 4x slower these days.

Looking at the Object/abstract.c it appears the fix to this has already
been checked in.  PyObject_IsInstance already has this in it:

        /* Quick test for an exact match */
        if (Py_TYPE(inst) == (PyTypeObject *)cls)
                return 1;

closing.
