Got myself a shiny python 3.13.3 (ssl module still unable to compile with libressl) replacing a 3.12.2, feels clearly slower.

What's wrong?

python 3.13 doesn't ship with free-threaded Python compiled AFAIK.

You mean it is not default anymore?

It's never been the default.

huh... then why it feels significantly slower since I did not touch the build conf.
