You must be referring to an earlier post I made.  That was purely
speculation.  I didn't time things until the weekend.  Also, the
5% speedup is base on the refactoring of eval_code2 with the
added generator bits.  I wouldn't put much weight on the apparent
speedup either.  Its probably slower on other platforms.
