[Python-Dev] Python 2.6a2 execution times with various compilers

[Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven]

I did some performance comparisons with various compilers and the resulting
Python 2.6a2 and pybench.

I put the details on
http://www.in-nomine.org/2008/04/11/python-26a2-execution-times-with-various-compilers/

Of course, take benchmark results with a grain of salt, but it seems ICC can
provide people with an added performance edge when using Python. In short: I
measured a speedup between ~21%-29% with ICC compared to GCC.
