Mainly caching, I guess. We could avoid global/module name lookups in some
cases, especially inside of loops.

Sounds like Cython's "Fused Types" could help here:

http://docs.cython.org/src/userguide/fusedtypes.html

It's essentially a generic functions implementation and you get a dispatch
either at compile time or runtime, depending on where (Python/Cython) and
how you call a function.
