I was wondering about Pybench-specific optimization too, so last night I
ran a few dozen of my projecteuler.net solver programs with VPython.
Excluding the ones that are so fast that startup overhead dominates
runtime, the least speedup I saw versus vanilla 2.5.2 was ~10%, the best
was ~50%, and average was ~30%.  Pretty consistent with Pybench.
