I'd be interested to know what sort of expectations I should have for
this. In particular speed. As I'm sure all palm owners are aware,
speed is critical in a 'good' application.

I recently installed KVM, the java virtual machine for the palm. It's
impressive, but the delay in starting the virtual machine and then the
actually program running a little slower that similar C-Coded
applications is disappointing.

Disappointing is probably the wrong word. It's what I expect from java
and the virtual machine, but is this what I should also expect from
stackless python on the pilot?
