Ma Lin:  Everything in Python is an object, nothing is native.  There is room to reconsider the implementation of integer objects, known internally as PyLong objects.  If you want to tease-out an alternative implementation, please do so on the python-ideas maillist.  Small integer operations (including) indexing used to be smaller and faster in Python 2.7, so there is likely some room for improvement on what we have now.
