Optimization can be a complicated undertaking. I urge you to take a look
at the cProfile module included with Python 2.5 or the "lsprof" distribution
of the same module for Python 2.4. When you have evidence of a particular
bottleneck, please post again. If you have already collected profiling data,
please include it whenever you post about performance.
