I'm not likely to ever use multitasking, and I wondered whether there is much of a penalty incurred by the addition of the multitasking code for those programs that don't use it? Maybe I'll run a few tests comparing 2.5 vs 3.0.

Maybe I'll run a few tests comparing 2.5 vs 3.0. With the translator, there's no penalty. With the interpreter, you might see a tiny slow-down with recursive calls, but not with non-recursive calls (which are far more common).
