There was more speedup in 3.3.2 and possibly even more in 3.3.3, so OP
should run the latter.
python 3.3.3 is what I use on windows. As for astral / non-bmp etc etc
that's almost irrelevant for the sort of tests we're doing which are
mostly simple english text.
If you do not test the cases where 2.7 is buggy and requires nasty
workarounds, then I can understand why you do not so much appreciate 3.3
;-).
Are you crazy? Surely everybody prefers fast but incorrect code in
preference to something that is correct but slow? Except that Python
3.3.3 is often faster. And always (to my knowledge) correct. Upper
Class Twit of the Year anybody? :)
