It is seriously fast, but +progress purely in that direction is reaching limits. Instead, it is +growing support for a larger part of the Python ecosystem: a long list +of common libraries are going from "unsupported" to "badly supported" to +"well supported". We also have beta Python 3 support. In short, try +PyPy today :-) + +On the research front, Transactional Memory seems to work as a way to +run programs on multiple cores. It is coming along, fully integrated +with the JIT compiler. We will show various examples, including +versions of event libraries (like Twisted, Tornado, greenlet...) that +run existing non-multithreaded programs on multiple cores. _______________________________________________ pypy-commit mailing list pypy-commit@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-commit
