Hi, Your writing style is too annoying to answer properly :-( I will not try to answer all of the points you mention; instead, let's just point out (as others have done) that the picture is more complex that you suppose, because it includes a lot of aspects that you completely ignore. I know definitely that with changes to the semantics of the language, Python could be made seriously faster. PyPy is not about this; it's a collection of people who either don't care too much about performance, or believe that even with these semantics Python *can* be made seriously fast -- it's just harder, but not impossible.
A bientot, Armin. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
