You might also want to add numexpr and numba to that list. Numba might actually be quite close to pymothoa (hadn't heard of it before). Personally, I like the idea of having a JIT compiler more or less as an extension module at hand. Sort-of like a co-processor, just in software. Lets you run your code either interpreter or JITed, just as you need. Note that the Cython project is working on a protocol to efficiently call external C implemented Python functions by effectively unboxing them. That explicitly includes JIT compiled code, and a JIT compiler could obviously make good use of it from the other side as well.
