This is really really great to see: pypy is such an interesting project, and it's really encouraging to see it make so much ground.
It's interesting that Guido deliberately didn't go for a full re write for python 3, but this project which is a full rewrite in a whole different language has provided a faster implementation with less developers!

So, apples and oranges. Still, amazing work by the PyPy folks any way you look a it.
