If you're looking for a big data cruncher on the cheap, I think your choice of programming language becomes important.

Ditch Python for something a little snappier. There's a discussion of languages for Machine Learning at http://hunch.net/?p=230.

Thanks; I now remember seeing this discussion on Hunch a while back and tagging it on delicious. I also remember why this didn't spring to mind; it left me more informed and befuddled :)
