In response to Marius' comments I changed the patch a bit earlier to
this:
def queryTaggedValue(self, tag, default=None):
""" Returns the value associated with 'tag'. """
tv = self.__tagged_values
if tv is None:
return default
return tv.get(tag, default)
Which is is faster as well as not doing the explicit name mangling you
object to.

That would be great, when it arrives.
Actually, in my case, memory is the issue. So the only optimization
that'll really help in a big way is if multiple python processes running
similar code start sharing data.
Some people have poked at that problem, but I havn't seen anything
significant yet.

I just tried to add slots to Element, Attribute and Method classes, but
it there's too many tests that break to benchmark it running the ZTK
tests.
On the micro benchmarks, the only difference I see is a memory
improvement which I think will not survive in practice because most
