Nice, but make sure that your are using the same compiler with the same options 
(ex: make sure that you are compiling in Release mode).

I don't know how to do that in C. Anyway, I prefer to have a more explicit call 
to a "simple" macro than magic implicit arguments. Optimizations sometimes make 
the code harder to read (a good example: the whole PEP 393)...

I wrote specialized functions to compare strings for each combination of 
Unicode kinds, and I added a fast path using wmemcmp() when possible. I don't 
see other speedup.

On Linux, Comparing astral strings in Python 3.4 is now 3 times faster than 
Python 3.2 and 3.3. I achieved my goal, I can close the issue :-D
