Curious: Why would you you expect sorting a collection of ints to be slower than sorting a collection of char arrays
It isn't sorting just by an integer. The sort code is:

Code:
if by_title:
    skeys = sorted(candidates_map.keys())
else:
    skeys = sorted(candidates_map.keys(),
               key=lambda ckey: '%04d%s' % (len(candidates_map[ckey]), ckey),
               reverse=True)
So, get the count of duplicates books for a title, convert to string and combine with the title. That will be slower for a lot of duplicates, but I'm not sure how noticeable it would be.
