Description

Determine which Object Space to use. The Standard Object Space gives the normal Python semantics, the others are Object Space Proxies giving additional features (except the Flow Object Space which is not intended for normal usage):

• thunk: The thunk object space adds lazy evaluation to PyPy.
• taint: The taint object space adds soft security features.
• dump: Using this object spaces results in the dumpimp of all operations to a log.
