I'm not sure if python 2.6 can support psyco module, so I ask, was it intentional to remove psyco support for python? Now I get "Runtime Error: NZEC"

It is really sad if we cannot use it any more. A huge amount of problems would become just impossible to solve in python.

In case it is not possible to use psyco with python 2.6, I leave another question, would be possible (and desirable) to have another "language" called "python 2.5 + psyco"?

Thanks, I read it. But I didn't see any conclusion about letting a version of python (2.5 or wherever it is) that has psyco support.

I did a small experiment with my python solutions and I got one worrying result. I have [color=#FF0000]48 AC problems[/color] in http://br.spoj.pl/status/diegocaminha/signedlist/ using python 2.5 + psyco. After the system update, I resubmitted my solutions just commenting 2 lines "#import psyco; #psyco.full()" and got to this:

[color=#FF0000]19 AC
29 TLE[/color]

That is only 39 % of my solutions are "fast enough" for python 2.6. And I know that most of this is just because of the input reading.

I'm not a python expert. I just use it here for fun and to practice a little bit, but I wonder if such update is worth when you limit so much the number of problems "solvable" frowning
