If you are mostly using your Ubuntu system to work with Python 3.1,
I recommend upgrading to 9.10 if that is not a big problem.
The python 3 version in the 9.10 repo is 3.1.1
Actually, if I/O is important, I'd recommend a full install of 9.10 so that
you can get the ext4 file system. I have found it offers some very
impressive speedups with the disk -- especially for deleting files.
