Calculating 99999 power 99999 on Python and Ruby

Calculating 99999⁹⁹⁹⁹⁹ (99999 power 99999) on Python and Ruby

Testing Environment
- Windows 2000, RAM 512, CPU 1.6 Celeron Mobile
- Python 2.6.1 and ruby 1.9.1

Python
(99999**99999)/(99999**99999)
6 seconds

Ruby
(99999**99999)/(99999**99999)
45 seconds

Python is fast on that thing.

ps# Both Python & Ruby fail to output on screen so I test like this (99999**99999)/(99999**99999) instead of 99999**99999
