Slow on my OSX machine as well. I also get this strange warning which I
have never seen before (I usually only use MPL on my windows machine).
Warning (from warnings module):
File
"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pytz/__init__.py",
line 29
from pkg_resources import resource_stream
UserWarning: Module numpy was already imported from
/Library/Frameworks/GDAL.framework/Versions/1.6/Python/site-packages/numpy/__init__.pyc,
but
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages
is being added to sys.path
