You're probably right, though for long-lived Decimal() instances, I'd
expect many rounds of iteration over the tuple.  I was just questioning
what you meant by "long enough".  (No benchmark, I'm still not set up

See me at OSCON!  I'm teaching Python for [Perl] Programmers, a fast intro 
for all experienced programmers (not just Perl).  Early bird ends June 10.
