On MacOS** your version
#!/usr/bin/python
v = {}
for line in open('keys.txt'):
v[long(line.strip())] = True
using these <http://www.sendspace.com/file/9530i7> keys takes
24.9 secs with ActivePython 2.5.1
and
212.3 secs with Apple's Python 2.3.5.
However, this version
#!/usr/bin/python
v = {}
for line in open('keys.txt'):
v[line] = True
takes
