I've actually decided to disable psyco support. I spoke with the upstream developers of Bittorrent and Bittornado and they strongly suggested *not* enabling psyco support automatically just because it is installed on people's systems. They said that it increases memory use and can cause reliability issues.
Since this version I am wanting to be stablized for Sarge, I would prefer to err on the side of reliability. They said that users should just enable psyco support themselves if they wish to have it running (either in the PSYCO.py file, or the individual modules). Perhaps after Sarge releases we can have a version with psyco support so it can be tested out. I will leave python-psyco as a Suggests entry however.
