I did some more tests concentrating on GCC, partly based on the feedback I
got, results at
http://www.in-nomine.org/2008/04/12/python-26-compiler-options-results/
Executive summary: Python needs to be compiled with -O2 or -O3. Not doing
so, no optimization level, results with GCC 4.2.1 in a doubli
I did some performance comparisons with various compilers and the resulting
Python 2.6a2 and pybench.
I put the details on

Of course, take benchmark results with a grain of salt, but it seems ICC can
provide p
