I found that if I ran my Python program from the console it took only 400sec, just 100 more than windoze. But if I ran it from IDLE, the IDE, it took 800sec. Then I removed all my Python and reinstalled it compiling with -02. Console still ran at 400 sec, but with IDLE, I get 440sec. Then I remembered, I had installed the IdleFork port. So it must bork the program in some way. Regular IDLE does OK.
