A faq entry explaining performance pitfalls would be very welcome:

http://faq.pygtk.org/

There are a couple of ones related to pixbufs and the garbage collector, but
they're explained in the FAQ. GtkTreeView has a couple of things you need to
pay attention to, such as fixed-height-mode and cell data functions.
