I think you're confusing cause and effect. In open source world, you can't charge for something that exists. It needs to be a need to do so. In order to push PyPy into putting significant effort from a core team - we would need ex

Did you actually look at the blog post? The novelty is the idea that you generate a JIT compiler from the interpreter using a few hints. Truffle does that, but Truffle is newer than PyPy.

There is a similarity, but there is also a difference. The general difference (among PyPy/Pyjion/Pyston) is "what to do with CPython C API". As far as I understand: * Pyjion says "we gonna add a JIT API to CPython&q

We spent the py3k budget (almost all of it) on delivering pypy 3.2. If someone is very unhappy that it was either too expensive or we didn't deliver enough for the money we received, I can apologize.

That's not completely true. It would be trivial to find people to work on Python 3 support if they were paid. It's just finding the volunteers that's hard.

Right. And those people are slowly getting to the problems that pypy potentially solves. We are focusing so far on widening the base of what we do, but if there is enough interest, we'll work on pypy3.

No, it runs deeper than that. You're mostly reaching out for pypy in case you're running into the wall with performance, one way or another. In that situation the LAST thing you want to do is to move to another language that does

Well, I'm sorry that it does not look like you would want it to look like, but as a pypy dev this is not my battle - we're there to provide a fast version of the mainstream python and mainstream for now means 2.7. If it changes, w

I know it does sound a bit bad, but Python 3 is only now catching up. The old PyPy3 that we have is a bit terrible, because it's both old (3.2 only) and slow. Serious push would be necessary in order to get it up to 3.5 and fix the

Yes, the remaining part is a hurdle, but hopefully not a very big one. The interface will always be slower, but hopefully you won't have to interact with it much (you almost never do with scipy). We have a cunning plan on how to make t
