I don't find it that surprising, but do find it disappointing that you would run benchmarks against the current version, but not post them online for perusal, nor provide any sort of explanation for the use of the older version in head-to-head comparisons. For me, at least, it produces the impression that PyPy has something to hide, and I doubt I'm the only one.
- wiz21c 9y agoI remember a FOSDEM conf. where someone of PyPy said they were working with a very low budget, I bet they have no time to spend on fixing a very superficial bad impression. You don't come to PyPy just to try, you come to PyPy to boost performances of some existing projects.
- fijal 9y agoYes, I'm really sorry. This is the usual case of budget - if I had budget to have anyone improve the website, improve the buildbot, improve the benchmark comparison, trust me I would do it. Right now there are no volunteers and the benchmark side is sort of lingering on.
