Just a curiosity. Running the script as the site lists on my computer:

$ time python2.4 /tmp/queens.py -n 12
Found 14200 solutions.

real    0m14.177s
user    0m13.700s
sys     0m0.042s

Adding a "import psyco; psyco.full()" clause to the beginning of the
file:

$ time python2.4 /tmp/queens.py -n 12
Found 14200 solutions.

real    0m3.250s
user    0m3.003s
sys     0m0.012s

At least interesting...

Felipe.
