It seems corrected today; the script below indeed fails with pypy-1.4. >>>> class C: .... def __float__(self): return 42.0 .... >>>> x = C() >>>> import math >>>> math.sqrt(x) 6.48074069840786 >> I don't remember how fast is was, though. > > On win32, PyPy 1.4 is about 40% slower than CPython 2.6 for running > the entire set of tests.

It seems that every function in the math module releases the GIL. This may explain some slowness. -- Amaury Forgeot d'Arc _______________________________________________ pypy-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
