this analysis might be relevant if I wanted to use sqrt. However, in my case the 
method takes



                       py  C
utf8 bytes            50  20 usec
unicode               39  15

here py refers to a native python method and C  to the extension method after 
adding to the class. Both are called via an instance of the class.
