So I can't edit my previous response anymore, but going over Ian Ozsvalds talks, I found this particular snippet (about 1 minute), in which he describes ShedSkin as pretty much what you want ;) The link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LlCqlMJr3E&t=18m50s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LlCqlMJr3E&t=18m50s The whole talk is valuable, of course, but it might not be your thing if you're not into numerical coding.
