Hi Michael, I don't know if it's a good idea to continue saying that our JIT is "Psyco-style". Mostly it's not :-) It's a tracing JIT now.
"The prototype JIT compiler ran programs X times faster than CPython"... Assuming you are now talking about the new JIT compiler, I suppose that such impressive numbers could still be true, but more importantly it now starts to actually run larger benchmarks with "a good speed-up". I would say that it's around the speed of Psyco, even a bit better in general, except that producing the assembler from the PyPy JIT still takes far too much time for now. Other random notes: * I would kill "logic programming". * As Maciej pointed out, having "high performance GC" was moved to the background for now as our existing GCs, although admittedly simple, perform well enough. A bientot, Armin. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
