I'm sure it's currently much slower, see here: http://blog.behnel.de/index.php?p=210 I'm not sure the quickly patched lxml is as fast in PyPy as it is in CPython, but there is certainly room for improvements, as I mentioned before. A substantial part of it runs in properly hand tuned C, after all, and thus doesn't need to go through cpyext or otherwise talk to PyPy.
