I don't know - I was assuming any buffering would be the same comparing PyPy 1.8 against Python 2.6 (and 3.2). That was one reason for my email - is binding to C relatively slow (compared to the rest of PyPy running pure Python)? Is there any PyPy specific advice on profiling (and how this differs to under 'C' Python)?
