Hmm, maybe the startup overhead of python is still significant 
with 1,000,000 iterations so here are 10,000,000 timings:

bernhard at b:~/src/benchmark$ time perl -e 'for 
($i=1;$i<=10000000;$i++) {print "$i: hello world\n";}' >/dev/null

real    0m21.400s
user    0m21.130s
sys     0m0.030s

bernhard at b:~/src/benchmark$ time ./10Mhello >/dev/null

real    0m9.932s
user    0m9.760s
sys     0m0.020s
