    I can't really say what makes it faster, except that it does use some ctypes, and in Jinja2 it compiles down to a module which is really nice.

    Did Curse switch to Jinja? Were templates a major bottleneck?

    I wouldn't say they were a major bottleneck, but yes, Curse was using Jinja. It was mostly because of the flexibility Jinja offers over Django.

    I have just migrated the user home page of mixin.com (http://www.mixin.com/users/ndengler/) from django to jinja2 on our test environment. The time used for rendering the template shrunk from ~1000ms to ~400ms (which is still to much). It's more than 2 times faster and we are planning to migrate our complete application on jinja2. I wish I knew jinja2 before!
