That's a tough one, in general. There are many tricks to speed up Python code;
consider rewriting parts in C as a last resort.
-In some cases it's possible to automatically translate Python to C or x86
-assembly language, meaning that you don't have to modify your code to gain
-increased speed.

-.. XXX seems to have overlap with other questions!

`Cython <http://cython.org>`_ and `Pyrex <http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/>`_
can compile a slightly modified version of Python code into a C extension, and
-can be used on many different platforms.

-`Psyco <http://psyco.sourceforge.net>`_ is a just-in-time compiler that
-translates Python code into x86 assembly language. If you can use it, Psyco can
-provide dramatic speedups for critical functions.

The rest of this answer will discuss various tricks for squeezing a bit more
speed out of Python code. *Never* apply any optimization tricks unless you know
