I was under the impression that speedup with Nuitka was fairly modest and you probably get faster with pypy e.g. there's some benchmarks here https://pybenchma

I was under the impression that speedup with Nuitka was fairly modest and you probably get faster with pypy
e.g. there's some benchmarks here https://pybenchmarks.org/ https://pybenchmarks.org/ and they mostly seem to go: Python 3 -> Nuitka (slightly faster) -> Cython (much faster) -> PyPy (faster again)
So I always assumed the main advantage was more in producing a single binary
And I'd consider that a big advantage over "shipping with Docker" for many use cases, e.g. building cli tools
- nerdponx 4y agoI wonder why Mypyc isn't in that benchmark.
- daneel_w 4y agoPython 3 really changed a lot, more than I realized. My experiences with Nuitka are against Python 2 from a couple of years back, at a point where Nuitka marketed itself using its performance increases and brought (at least) a 3-5x speedup on almost everything you threw at it.
