% ./python.exe -m timeit -r11 -s 'x=3452452454524' 'x.to_bytes(10, "little")'
2000000 loops, best of 11: 94.6 nsec per loop
% ./python.exe -m timeit -r11 -s 'x=3452452454524' 'x.to_bytes(10, "big")'
2000000 loops, best of 11: 97.8 nsec per loop
% ./python.exe -m timeit -r11 -s 'x=3452452454524' 'x.to_bytes(10)'
5000000 loops, best of 11: 79.1 nsec per loop
