  \item The \module{heapq} module has been converted to C.  The resulting
     tenfold improvement in speed makes the module suitable for handling
!    high volumes of data.  In addition, the module has two new functions
!    \function{nlargest()} and \function{nsmallest()} that use heaps to
!    find the largest or smallest n values in a dataset without the
!    expense of a full sort.
