Riko, any chance you could post the final code and a bit more detail on exactly how much Psyco contributed to the speedup? The former would be educational for all of us, while I'm personally very curious about the latter because my limited attempts to use Psyco in the past have resulted in speedups on the order of only 20% or so. (I blame my particular application, not Psyco per se, but I'd be happy to see a real-world case where Psyco gave a much bigger boost.)
