Hi Todd, I'm not sure what your goals are, but my position is that if you write a translator backend and a JIT backend (please do) you can have fast (and improving) python on platform X. What were you hoping to target with your backend? Cheers, Dan

I am curious what percentage of real-world Python programs in use are also RPython programs. I know that the FAQ says that the translator is not intended for Python programs in general but only for the PyPy interpreter itself but I’ve also seen a few mentions (on other sites) of attempting to translate Python to C. I’ve been thinking about adding a backend to the translator but would only want to do so if a significant amount of Python programs could use it. thanks, Todd _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
