+Performance Impact
+==================
+
+Implementing the new semantics makes it necessary to store the references
+to the ``__enter__`` and ``__exit__`` methods in temporary variables instead
+of on the stack. This results in a slight regression in ``with`` statement
+speed relative to Python 2.6/3.1. However, implementing a custom
+``SETUP_WITH`` opcode would negate any differences between the two
+approaches (as well as dramatically improving speed by eliminating more
+than a dozen unnecessary trips around the eval loop).

 Reference Implementation

-In work.
+Patch attached to Issue 5251 [1]. That patch uses only existing opcodes
+(i.e. no ``SETUP_WITH``).
