Know your algorithm complexity.
The more complex an algorithm is the slower it gets, that applies for ALL languages.
e.g.
A double for loop has complexity of O(n^2). (its very slow)
A single for loop has complexity of O(n).
(ok speed but not great either)

Answer 3

Thanks for all the answers. I see time.time and time.clock as answers. Is there a difference between them ?

Answer 4

It depends on your algorithm
