Looks like the most expensive part might be the import pygame:

With your code:
3 function calls in 0.688 CPU seconds


Or like this (and after restarting the interpreter):

import profile
def main():
 import pygame
 pygame.init()
 screen = pygame.display.set_mode((310,120))
 pygame.display.set_caption("aaaa")
 pygame.mouse.set_visible(1)
profile.run("main()")


15 function calls in 2.000 CPU seconds


Still not the 3+ seconds reported by the OP (even on my
old 486) so I wonder if maybe it is a problem w/ the
video driver and that particular mode....
