Makes sense, this is somewhat analogous to the import speedup you can get by putting all the python modules into a zip file. I tend to do that when distributing

Makes sense, this is somewhat analogous to the import speedup you can get by putting all the python modules into a zip file. I tend to do that when distributing python applications on windows, where the speedup is more noticeable.
