    Just spent 3 hours reducing the startup time of my !python plotting script from 10s to 3s - which massively reduced its frustration factor ☺

      @arnebab Check out cython if you have a real need for speed. It even supports Python 3.2 ☺

        I did not need real speed but reduced startup time. I already have heavy caching in there which changes algorithms from O(N²) to O(1) :)

        I think I should write an article on using pickle as a generic function cache for python… I just decorate the functions with @cached…
