Sounds like the FreeBSD ports build cluster. :)
Yes indeed!
Kris, have you tried a PGO build of Python with your specific usage? I
cannot guarantee it will significantly speed things up though.
I am pretty sure the problem is algorithmic, not bad byte code :) If it
was a matter of a few % then that is in the scope of compiler tweaks,
but we're talking orders of magnitude.

Also, a while ago I did tests with various GCC compilers and their effect on
Python running time as well as Intel's cc. Intel won on (nearly) all
accounts, meaning it was faster overall.
From the top of my mind: GCC 4.1.x was faster than GCC 4.2.x.
