A brief follow up. * PyPy trunk is faster (by quite a bit). * I noticed that you happily use mixture of old and new style classes. As of now this is a really bad case for PyPy. Example: >>>> [isinstance(i, type) for i in mpmath.fp.__class__.__mro__] [True, True, True, True, False, False, True, True, False, True, True, True, True, True, True] when I replace it with newstyle classes it runs much faster Other things that speed up both CPython and PyPy: * Put this things into function instead of at global scope * Use list comprehension instead of generator expression. That all should make PyPy 3x faster than CPython. > > PyPy 1.4 runs this about 2.4 times slower than CPython. > > Fredrik > _______________________________________________ > pypy-dev@codespeak.net > http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev > _______________________________________________ pypy-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
