I agree, but PyMemoryView_FromMemory(PyBytes_AS_STRING(b), n, PyBUF_WRITE) just hides the fact that a mutable bytes object is exposed. Are we talking about a big speedup here or could we perhaps just keep the existing code?

just hides the fact that a mutable bytes object is exposed.

Are we talking about a big speedup here or could we perhaps just keep
