Tested it on mac OSX (Snow leopard)

Shashwat-Anands-MacBook-Pro:Desktop l0nwlf$ python2.5 popentest.py 
time with os.popen :  0.0342061519623
time with subprocess.Popen :  0.0421631336212
Shashwat-Anands-MacBook-Pro:Desktop l0nwlf$ python2.6 --version
Python 2.6.1
Shashwat-Anands-MacBook-Pro:Desktop l0nwlf$ python2.6 popentest.py 
time with os.popen :  0.0282561779022
time with subprocess.Popen :  0.0366630554199


Python 2.5.4s os.popen was faster than subprocess.Popen, the same being the case with Python 2.6.1 I do not think it is a mac issue.
