  >Yeah, but this project is actually delivering stuff that's been shipped. The initial selling point was ~ 5x speedup over 5 years. This is over a year now, with far more people and resources plus the backling of a major industry-player (MS), and it's been like 20%-30% improvements at best, and even those in danger to be wiped out by the no-gil change. >As for your fantasy, we already have PyPy. That's nowhere near Lars Bak level fantasy results...
