There is result from pystone test test run an old PC (NT 5.1):
- 2.6(official build):
   42194,6; 42302,4; 41990,8; 42658,0; 42660,6; 42770,1
   average=42429,4
   deviation=311,6
- 2.6.1(official build):
   35612,1; 35778,8; 35666,7; 35697,9; 35514,9; 35654,0
   average=35654,1
   deviation=88,1
- trunk(my mingw based build):
   35256,7; 35272,5; 35247,2; 35270,7; 35225,6; 35233,5
   average=35251,0
   deviation=19,2

There is problem with python performance between 2.6 and 2.6.1 ~ 19% :(.
Also the test for GCC-mingw is not with same source base.
