So it seems if we want to get any faster than that, we need to work on the Python object construction stuff. To be honest, I'm a bit sick of thinking about that at the moment. It's something we could come back to later. I think we have enough work to do implementing more widely the stuff we worked on at SAGE days 2. Try a sage -t on the whole library with omalloc, and if that works, I say patch it in permanently.
