No, because we don't use Python where C would be more appropriate. Sure nobody would complain if Python were faster, but it's not for speed that we choose Python. Not speed of /execution/ that is. Different languages have different trade-offs. Python's trade-offs suit us. If they don't suit you, use a language with trade-offs that do. -- Tim Rowe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
