   The slow compilation process for Python.NET is not that important if the
compiled code is kept and there are some techniques, as you have pointed out
for speeding up compilation. The problem is the slow execution of the
resulting compiled code which can be easily experienced by compiling and
running PyStone with Python.NET.
