I recently wanted to test this, so I added to cvs an *extremely* simple
service called psyco_accel, but haven't started to play with it.  It
could be your starting point.  The service in its entirety is:

  def _hook(*args, **kwargs):
      try:
          import psyco
      except ImportError:
          pass
      else:
          psyco.profile()


  from SkunkWeb.Hooks import ChildStart
  ChildStart.append(_hook)
  del ChildStart

You would add it your list of services in sw.conf.

In simple tests I performed, this frankly didn't make difference, but
I'm not very familiar with psyco and I assume it could be targeted
better.  Please let me know what you find.

As for performance in general, generally speaking, with SkunkWeb,
component caching is the key to performance.  

Cheers,
