It seems that profile guided optimization also offers some benefits on
Windows (eg,
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-May/072970.html), so it
might be worth trying to coordinate such efforts between platforms (eg, a
central document which holds results for all supported platforms sounds
worthwhile, and maybe sharing the top-level script that generates the
profile data, etc) 

Cheers,

Mark
