The exact opposite actually.  I'm trying to make sense of these so 
called benchmark figures, and quite frankly can't make head nor tail of 
them.  BartC also cannot seem to grasp that the vast majority of people 
often couldn't care less about them, but continues banging on as if 
Python will never take off as it's too slow, whereas the reality is that 
it's been doing rather well.
