I've also found that 3 was consistently slower than 2 on various
benchmarks. Perhaps 10 to 20% slower (also 3.4 vs. 2.7).
Python doesn't exist for performance-critical parts of your solution.
Also, Python programs tend to take huge amounts of space.
I'm not complaining. For my purposes (implementing a similar language
that competes with Python for speed), I welcome the slower speed of
Python 3!
(Although competing with CPython is too easy. PyPy is more of a problem.
With the Jpeg benchmark I mentioned, I can beat PyPy up to 6Mpix, but
then PyPy starts to get faster. At 80Mpix, PyPy is 60% faster.)
