It's probably better with XEmacs, which has primitives that
python-mode can use to figure out if it's sitting inside a string or
not.  Emacs doesn't have these.

That being said, I've had a few people report such problems but no one 
who's been able to send me a code sample so I can profile it.  If you
can do this, use C-c C-b to send a python-mode bug report and include
your sample.
