wouldn't it be feasible to write a Cython compiler that doesn't compile to CPython API but to the ffi that PyPy likes more?

- srean 11y ago...or to RPython to expose more surface area to the JIT optimizer. BTW very curious of our login name. There used to be this type inferred language called Wirbel that compiled a subset of Python to native binary. Are you anyway associated ?
- BlackFingolfin 11y ago"Wirbel" ist german for whirl, swirl, vortex, ... -- and "wirr" means roughly "confused" or "light in the head" -- my guess is that this user speaks German and the nick is a pun ;-).
- wirrbel 11y agonot associated. It is indeed a kind of a pun. wirbel is whirl/swirl and also metaphorically "fuss", wirr means confused. So I put those words together, as BlackFingolfin described.
- fijal 11y agosee my comment above - in short, very feasible, but someone has to care enough to do (I'm not volunteering)
