> There were no noticeable performance improvements in the course of the last two years. In fairness, Python did get faster. Python 3.9 took 82 seconds for sudoku solving and 62 seconds for interval query. Python 3.11 took 53 and 43 seconds, respectively [1]. v3.12 may be better. That said, whether the speedup is noticeable can be subjective. 10x vs 15x slower than v8 may not make much difference mentally.
