One of the issues is that docstrings don't interact well with gettext
- you need to monkey-patch inspect.getdoc to actually get those to
display correctly. Which might be where you start to see performance
issues.

import inspect
def getdoc(object):
    try:
        doc = object.__doc__
    except AttributeError:
        return None
    if not isinstance(doc, basestring):
        return None

    return inspect.cleandoc(_(doc))

inspect.getdoc = getdoc
