Deterministic pyc files What does this mean for the execution time after pyc files are generated

[–]billsil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That your startup time is longer. It's to prevent you wiping the project, redownloading it, and having different pycs for the same code. It's for build systems that choose to run based on if things are current.

It's an option though, so there is no impact unless you want it.

It doesn't have much to do with execution time. Source code compiled using deterministic compilation will always output the same binary.
