I wonder if lazy import of os module is worth it here, it is needed three times and the improvement is small and only in a special case.

Python always imports os and sys at startup. Moving import sys makes sense, it's only used by _main(). But I'm not sure about moving os.

In the OP, @hugovk provides timings for when the python is run without the site.py module (python -S), in which case os and sys are not loaded I believe?

Yes, it makes a difference with python -S, compare the last three images above.

But I'm fine reverting any of these, because I expect with site.py is by far the most usual thing.
