What about Numba and Cython?
- narimiran 9y ago> What about Numba? I'll copy-paste my Reddit comment: Like pypy, numba was also on my radar, but I couldn't make it work by just slapping `@jit` decorator to the original code, and I didn't want to go into figuring out what's wrong nor making modifications to the original code. >> I suspect it should be on par with Nim. Somebody else [0] has run a comparison including Numba, where Numba is 1.5x faster than NumPy. This means, if we can compare tests on the different machines, that Nim should be about 2x faster than Numba.

It would be interesting to see the results.
