I'm pretty sure I saw him (or maybe Andrew Dalke) post some timing comparisons between pybench and stringbench. Something about a change not impacting performance showing a 60% slowdown on pybench but no change using stringbench. Maybe Fredrik had his iTunes volume cranked up too high... ;-)

This is possible since pybench uses a long run strategy, whereas stringbench uses the timeit.py short run method.
