Changes
- icomment:
Re-titled to more precisely identify the problem. Hash table teardown is O(N^2) in the number of table entries, unless one can guarantee that the teardown loop is the only thing changing the table. That is, no callbacks! Destructor callbacks are common in much of the Tcl implementation, so we can expect to hit this performance issue in many places.
