Thank you for your reply, but I have question about your code. Your defined:

   def post_order(self):
       for child in self.childs:
           yield child
       yield self

just for "Node" , not for "Tree", and do

   w("doing generator post_order...")
   _t = datetime.now()
   for item in root.post_order():
       fake = item.value
   w("done\n")
   w(datetime.now() - _t)
   w("\n")

what give us only iterating along root's children, not iterating along
tree...Or I didn't catch your though?

Best Regards
Alex
