So, once CPython is up and running in the benchmark test, adding Cython
should be as easy as copying the configuration, installing Cython
and adding
two lines to site.py.
can you provide a simple command line tool for that? I want
essentially to run ./cython-importing-stuff some-file.py
You can try
python -c 'import pyximport; \
pyximport.install(pyimport=True); \
exec("somefile.py")'
You may want to configure the output directory for the binary modules,
though, see
https://github.com/cython/cython/blob/master/pyximport/pyximport.py#L343
Please also take care to provide suitable gcc CFLAGS, e.g. "-O3
-march=native" etc.
If this works it is great. I don't think doing this work should be part
of the gsoc proposal. Considering it as a use case could be included in
the infrastructure work though.

Obviously, we'd have to integrate a build of the latest Cython
development
sources as well, but it's not like installing a distutils enabled
Python
package from sources is so hard that it pushes Cython out of scope
for this
GSoC.
no, that's fine. My main concern is - will cython run those
benchmarks?
In the worst case, they will run at CPython speed with uncompiled
modules.
and will you complain if we don't provide a custom cython
hacks? (like providing extra type information)
I don't consider providing extra type information a hack. Remember
that they are only used for additional speed-ups in cases where the
author is smarter than the compiler. It will work just fine without them.
