AFAIK the most time is spent in system calls like stat or open. Archiving the stdlib into the ZIP file and using zipimport can decrease Python startup time (perhaps there is an open issue about this).

Oh, please don't. One thing I love about Python is the ease of access.

I personally think that startup time is not really a big issue; even when it comes to microbenchmarks.

Best, Sven
