no clue as to what is causing this.
- PythonInterpreter used interactively will eat a lot of processor cycles. You should use
PythonIDE for interactive work and PythonInterpreter for scripts only.

+- Under MacOSX Public Beta ConfigurePython cannot put PythonCore in the global CFMSupport

+ in the same folder as your applet.
+ This problem should in all probability not occur in the release version of MacOSX.
