So really, it's not "all() is slow" but "function calls are slow".
Maybe it'd be worthwhile making an all-factory:

def my_all(code,lst):
    exec("""def tmp_all(x):
        for a in x:
            if not ("""+code+"""): return False
        return True
""")
    return tmp_all(lst)
timeit.timeit('my_all("a in (True, False)",x)','from __main__ import
my_all,x',number=10)

Bad code imho, but it _is_ faster than both the original and the builtin.
