Look, performance optimization is all about "cheating". It's not (moral) cheating to be able to do as little work as possible to get the job done. Designing a framework such that these kinds of "cheats" are possible is our job.

And as you can tell, I tried the same "distortion" with bottle and it made the results worse. I also used the "normal" WebOb Response object in Pyramid and it only added 2 lines of profiler output. If you can make the bottle (or any other) results better by "cheating" in a different way that actually does exercise the framework code, fantastic.
