Since the slow portion of code is well known, I didn't bother to try
profile(). However...

Since you mentioned it, I gave it a try, and there's no difference in the
results between using psyco.bind() on the slow routines and psyco.profile()
on the entire simulation. However, the difference in effort, and
corresponding reduction in liklihood of programmer error, is enough to
justify using the single psyco.profile() line vs multiple psyco.bind()
lines.
