Would you mind to give a more more details? In the issue, you wrote: "Currently various parts of the VM gather stats: the GC, dicts, the bytecode interpreter, type lookup cache, etc.".

I'd rather not because, as it says, they are internal. We may well add or remove stats when we need them and this documentation will end up being a pain to maintain or just wrong.


The statistics will be dumped to a arbitrary (probably unique) file in
``/tmp/py_stats/`, or `C:\temp\py_stats\` on Windows.
``/tmp/py_stats/``, or ``C:\temp\py_stats\`` on Windows.

Use ``Tools//summarize_stats.py`` to read the stats.
