There is no way to do this, nor would any conceivable alteration to Python's base make it run faster. If you *really* need more speed, you can create a C-language extension: https://docs.python.org/2/extending/extending.html However, many times improving an algorithm written in Python will suffice. It may takes lots of work, as with Leo's syntax coloring algorithm. > 3) can some Python script within a Leo outline be included as bytecode?

You could distribute .pyc files, but the format of those files depends on the exact version of Python you are using. I realize that in commercial environments it can seem advisable to hide source code, but Python isn't very friendly to that approach.
