cpython/PC/dllbase_nt.txt
Guido van Rossum a8ee4c31bf Mark Hammond:
* Base address for all extension modules updated. PC\dllbase_nt.txt
also updated.  Erroneous "libpath" directory removed for all
projects.

* winsound module moved from a builtin module to an extension
module.  This was done primarily to avoid Python16.dll needing to
pull in winmm.dll.  Really dumb test added for winsound - but if
nothing else it ensures the module imports.

In Win32, DLL's are "pre-linked" using a specified base address.
When the DLL is loaded, an attempt is made to place it at
that address. If that address is already in use, a new base address
is selected, and the DLL subject to fixups. Apparently, these
fixups are very slow, and significant performance gains can be
made by selecting a good base address.
This document is to allocate base addresses to core Python
and Python .PYD files, to give a better change of optimal performance.
This base address is passed to the linker using the /BASE
command line switch.
