aiter() performance and internals

Performance characteristics and CPython implementation details.

python
# aiter() internals
import dis

def using_aiter():
    pass

# Bytecode analysis
dis.dis(using_aiter)

# Check if it's truly built-in
import builtins
print(f"\naiter is builtin: {hasattr(builtins, 'aiter')}")
print(f"Type: {type(builtins.aiter)}")

Understanding the internal implementation helps optimize hot paths in performance-critical code.
