Ooops, my benchmark was wrong. It looks like the result depends sys.maxunicode:

$ python2.4 -c "import sys; print sys.maxunicode"
1114111
$ python2.5 -c "import sys; print sys.maxunicode"
1114111
$ python2.6 -c "import sys; print sys.maxunicode"
1114111
$ ./python -c "import sys; print sys.maxunicode"
65535

The last on (./python) is Python trunk.
