- uluyol 4y agoI'm not sure but there are several active parallel efforts to speed up python (faster-cpython, cinder, pyston). The faster-cpython project is doing 100% upstream development, and I'm not sure but it seems like cinder and pyston are trying to align with them, to avoid becoming unmaintainable forks.

- terafo 4y agoI'd guess it got something to do with introduction of Jax.
