I would not expect any speedup. You might see some difference in loading times, but the actual program being run is still just the Python interpreter running your script, and that's not going to run any faster. I had a coworker who wrapped up one of his applications with py2exe / pyInstaller on the theory that since his program would be run from a network share, it would be faster to load a single exe over the network than a bunch of .pyc files plus the files needed to run the interpreter. I can't tell any difference, though. Cheers, Ian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
