I've learned not to benchmark ideas against MOSDEF; it's dispiriting. The difference between my code and yours, apart from maturity and originality, is that yours focuses on assembly language and mine focuses on a class hierarchy for opcodes. I wanted to see how far I could get using Python as a superficial IL for x86. My goal isn't shellcode; it's process[or] manipulation. I used it to write a debugger to run over firewire.

If anyone's interested, we'd be happy to post.How do these things differ from MOSDEF (other than having a disassembler?)
