I am really bad at compiling programs, and I just want to know if my python 2.5 program would be faster if I converted it to a .exe using py2exe. I don't want to spend a lot of time trying to compile it if it will just be slower in the end. My program uses OpenCV and PyAudio, but I think that are the only non pure-python modules it uses. Thanks!
NOTE: I do not think this question requires a snippit of code, but if it does, please say so in the comments. Thanks!
I spent last 2 months working on Windows Python and I must say i am not very happy. 
If you have any C modules(besides standard library), you'll have huge problems to get it working.
Speed is similar to Linux, but it seems a little bit slower.
Please note that py2exe is not the best. 
I had issues with py2exe and had to use pyinstaller. 
It has a better debug, it worked in cases when py2exe didn't
My biggest dissapointment was exe size, I had a simple program which used lxml, suds and it was 7-8mb big...
Is a python script faster when you convert it to a .exe using py2exe?
