I disagree with your statement. Just like every benchmark, they serve their purpose in their particular field of use, e.g. pybench may not be useful for the JIT approach originally taken by the Unladden Swallow project, but it's still useful to test/check changes in the non-JIT CPython interpreter and it's extensible to take new developments into account. pystone is useful to get a quick feel the performance of Python on a machine. ---------- nosy: +lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15369> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
