Python 2.1 slower than 2.0

[Miki Tebeka]

On my win2k 2*P500 I get:

[10:57]>c:/apps/Python20/python.exe pystone.py
Pystone(1.1) time for 10000 passes = 1.55122
This machine benchmarks at 6446.56 pystones/second

[10:58]>c:/apps/Python21/python.exe pystone.py
Pystone(1.1) time for 10000 passes = 1.60395
This machine benchmarks at 6234.6 pystones/second

A little slowdown here as well.

Bye.
