It seems weird to me that Collin's group can be working
so hard just to get a percent or two improvement in
specific cases for pickling while python-dev is readily
entertaining a patch that slows down the entire language.

I think it's really more than a percent or two:
http://bugs.python.org/issue5670
For lists, it was a percent or two:
http://bugs.python.org/issue5671
I expect Collin's overall efforts to payoff nicely. I was
just pointing-out the contrast between module specific
optimization efforts versus anti-optimizations that affect
the whole language.
