Just to throw into the mix...

What about buffering? Does anyone know what the effective stdin buffer
is for Python? I mean, it really can't be the multiplying that's a
bottleneck. Not sure if it's possible, but can a new stdin be created
(possibly using os.fdopen) with a hefty buffer size?

I'm probably way off, but something to share.

Cheers,

Jon.
