That's possible, although far in the future. Look here: http://moderator.appspot.com/ and search for pypy. > > Question : I have to use Python Or RPython? Have to use for what? If you want to participate in PyPy project, you probably need to know a bit about rpython, otherwise no, you don't.

SO it is possilbe to > convert Existing Python Projects into C (if they follow Rpython)? The simple answer is: they don't follow RPython. I'm pretty sure about this. You need to rewrite them from scratch, at least in parts for that. It's not very helpful. > Another , i compiled pypy-c in stackless , which is faster in term of > pypy-c's perfomance? normal or stackless? normal, although not by much. There is also an experimental option --gcrootfinder=asmgcc which makes it even faster, but does not cooperate well with ctypes for example. > Also doing , what are the extra modules added with --allworkingmodules ? You should have list when you start compiling. For linux machine, it's: ["_socket", "unicodedata", "mmap", "fcntl", "rctime" , "select", "zipimport", "_lsprof", "crypt", "signal", "dyngram", "_rawffi", "termios", "zlib", "struct", "md5", "sha", "bz2", "_minimal_curses", "cStringIO", "thread", "itertools"] (copy-pasted from file) > > I am hoping in near future , i can help in this project after enough > understanding . You're very much welcomed to do so.
