If you decide to use pystone, I'd argue you incorporate psyco into the distribution and stick the following code right after the definition of Proc8:

try:
    import psyco
except ImportError:
    pass
else:
    psyco.bind(Proc8)

(I believe that's the correct psyco call and the correct function to optimize. It's been awhile.)
