That got already covered some months ago,

my basic understanding of the incidents that happened back then is,
 that alioth is not a desirable test to participate in,
the code/scripts are biased towards particular implementations,
and the maintainer has some strange ideas,

as far as i remember pypy was part of it for some time, but actually underperformed since scripts where heavily cpython-optimized
which does not always help on pypy

No, I said to compare to the same tests (source files) of alioth. I
explain: I see in http://speed.pypy.org/comparison/ that you run "ai",
"bm_chameleon", .... tests. I suppose this was python sources. I say to
use the same scripts of alioth (in addition of yours), because this, you
can compare to cpython and additionally you (and users) could have if
the pypy faster than cpython and also faster and language X. Maybe for
you is not "important" but for example I'm amazing if I see that pypy is
"only" 1.5x slower than C++ in alioth tests.

Hello,

If I'm not mistaken, the policy of the language benchmark game is to
have only one implementation of a specific language, and preferably
the reference implementation.
So I guess that unless pypy eventually becomes the reference python
interpreter, CPython will remain the only python interpreter to appear
in that benchmark.

    Hi,

    I'm just curious: can you make the tests of alioth
    
[http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32q/which-programming-languages-are-fastest.php]?
    If you do, you can compare pypy to cpython and also to other
    programming languages. What do you think about this idea?


    Thanks in advance,
    Xan.
