No problem. I had completely forgotten about the global interpreter lock, wrote a little multithreading tool that ran my code in three different threads, and got just about a 2x speedup on a dual-core machine. Then someone reminded me about the GIL and I was puzzled... your results will certainly depend on your code, but I found it useful to have a little parallel-for-loop idiom for all those cases where parallelism is stupidly easy.
