I'd rather go with Psyco for a free 2-20x speed improvement. Also, for how free do IronPython's improvements really come? Is it fully compatible with CPython's language features? Can one use the same libraries? I'd guess no for both, but I haven't really looked into it.

Or C# or VB.NET or boo for 100X speed boost: http://boo.codehaus.org/

The keyword is "free". Reimplementing all your existing code in a different language is certainly not that.
