Antoine, Victor and me have implemented a couple of speed ups for
"import site" already. I removed several unnecessary imports by
rearranging some code. AFAIK imports on OSX haven't been optimized yet.

On Linux I get:

$ ./python -c "import sys; print(len(sys.modules))"
34
$ ./python -S -c "import sys; print(len(sys.modules))"
22

Brett, are you an OSX developer? :)
