I took a brief look at the zip and noticed that you are using PyAMF 0.3.0b, which is ancient! :) There has been a lot of effort to optimise PyAMF since that version (x4-x8 speed up in d/encoding is not unusual). If speed is your king then I would suggest you take a look at the soon to be released 0.6 [1] which is largely backwards compatible with all older versions.
