I've been trying this on my few remaining PHP based sites and finding it great. Can we now get the same for Python? ;-)

Have you taken a look at Pypy? It's even mentioned in the paper! http://pypy.org/

The same idea has been done for psyco (tracelets there are called basic-block-at-a-time compilation). PyPy uses a tracing JIT instead to achieve better performance in cases where psyco was too hard.
