Hi, I've been carefully following your mailing list for years, and using PyPy for different kind of projects, mostly for highly distributed and decentralized systems, and everything is just great compared to CPython, Jython and IronPython. I've even written partial ctypes wrapper for GObject Introspection, so I could use Gtk as GUI toolkit on top of PyPy. Today, I cannot imagine writing Python code without executing it on PyPy because it just feels natural to use it as default implementation instead of an alternative CPython :)
I know that you don't feel that using reference counting as GC mechanism is good idea because of overhead of maintaining reference counts to each object and non concurrent nature of it, but can you give me any idea where to start and how I can implement reference counting for PyPy. Have in mind that I am not new to Python, and low level stuff, just want to measure performance and possibly implement alternative reference counting strategies. Cheers, Marko Tasic
