After reading this I went off and actually _read_ the mallopt manpage for the 
first time in my life, and it seems there's quite a few parameters there we 
might want to experiment with. Besides the M_MXFAST there's also M_GRAIN, 
M_BLKSIZ, M_MXCHK and M_FREEHD that could have significant impact on Python 
performance. I know that all the tweaks and tricks I did in the MacPython 
malloc implementation resulted in a speedup of 20% or more (including the 
cache-aligment code in dictobject.c).
