PyPy works with most Python code
- Ixiaus 12y agoPlease. Don't. PyPy is not mature and still suffers from many deficiencies in python itself and the community. I'm not a huge fan of Ruby, but Ruby, its community, and rubinius are doing it much better.
- jrochkind1 12y agoI do most of my work in ruby and am a fan of it (less of some decisions it's community makes, but I'm still okay with it)... and I shy away from rubinius because I don't think it has enough to offer to justify the non-boring risk/tax. I don't want to be discovering that some gem I use (perhaps only a couple versions after i start using it) isn't compatible with rubinius. Even if it's a small risk (and I honestly am not sure how much of a risk it is), for what? Slight performance edge? I don't need it. Multi-core parallelism? I usually don't need it, and if I do, I'm going to choose JRuby (reluctantly).
- pjmlp 12y agoBy working most of the time and not all of the time, it is yet another layer to debug. PyPy is great, but until it gets to replace CPython it isn't something I would advise in production.
