Urm... so like if FreeBSD's getpid was 100x slower than Linux's then
what exactly would it be?
If FreeBSD's implementation is needlessly precise (and hence slow) for
Python, then our platform should have a workaround "fast version" that
Linux has. The "fast" version doesn't have to be the default (although
linux's massive marketshare would prove otherwise) however our port
should be patched to use the fast version.

Hello,
I'm developing a little project on Python 3.5. The server's operating
system is FreeBSD 10.2. Today I decided to do a little test "just for fun"
and the result has confused me. I ran the following code
import random
import time
def test_sort(size):
sequence = [i for i in range(0, size)]
random.shuffle(sequence)
start = time.time()
ordered_sequence = sorted(sequence)
print(time.time() - start)
if __name__ == '__main__':
test_sort(1000000)
on FreeBSD 10.2 x64 and on Debian 8 x64. Both computers was the smallest
(5$ per month) virtual machines on the Digital Ocean (
https://www.digitalocean.com). The average result on the FreeBSD was 1.5
sec, on the Debian 1.0 sec. Both machines was created specially for test
and had not any customization. Could you help me to understand why python
is so slower on FreeBSD and may be there are some steps I can perform to
speed up the python to work not slower than on Debian.
I have found in Google the similar question:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-python/2012-June/004306.html
so
it has an interest not only for me.
P.S. I really like FreeBSD and I would be happy to solve this issue. If you
will have an interest to this issue I can provide SSH access for both
machines :)
Thank You!
