Just to clarify, if I understand you correctly, you mean that by investing 
some serious effort into optimising those "small" inefficiencies one could 
improve the situation from 5x to 3x.

However, I wonder if anything could be done on the SIMD front in a rather 
generic way with a reasonable investment of time but without going the 
full NumPyPy way, e.g. by doing something special for tight loops 
performing math on objects with a special layout (lists, arrays)...
