Hi All,
Well the time has come again to upgrade to a newer version of
IronPython. I'm tempted to try one of the source code drops instead of
Beta 4,is there any reason I shouldn't use this morning's drop?
There have been further performance improvements from beta 4 in the
latest code drop. Another reason to use it is that the hosting API has
changed *again* - but hopefully for the last time!

I'm happy to see that the performance of IronPython has been improving
constantly. Performance is key, I've upgraded my development PC twice,
and am running at a 20% overclock just to keep the edit, refresh,
debug cycles down to a reasonable amount of time. A large Silverlight
project takes a while to load in the browser :(
Incidentally bugs in psycopg2 drove me to create a ctypes client
library for PostgreSQL. This was my last remaining C library on the
backend, so I'm no longer tied to CPython. I eventually (early next
year) intend to compare IronPython on Mono to CPython 2.5 for running
the backend server, and choose the fastest of the two for final
testing and deployment. I expect I'll be pleasantly surprised by
IronPython.
