trunk: Ran 274 tests in 25.239s py3k: Ran 268 tests in 26.263s So I don't see any substantial difference on a Kubuntu 10.04 box (both builds are recent'ish, but not completely up to date). However, the underlying IO access is significantly different between POSIX and Windows, so there could still be something pathological happening at the filesystem manipulation layer. My comparisons are also 2.7 vs 3.2 rather than 2.6 vs 3.1. Cheers, Nick. Thanks for all the timings! If a Windows user could do the same thing that would help ...

WinXP SP3

2.6 Ran 272 tests in 13.172s 3.1 Ran 267 tests in 15.735s py3k A lot of ERROR and FAIL tests

WinXP SP3
