PyPy 1.7 released
[Development] Posted Nov 21, 2011 15:08 UTC (Mon) by corbet
Version 1.7 of the PyPy Python interpreter is out. As is usual, much of
the work in this release is focused on performance. "The main topic
of this release is widening the range of code which PyPy can greatly speed
up. On average on our benchmark suite, PyPy 1.7 is around **30%** faster
than PyPy 1.6 and up to **20 times** faster on some benchmarks."
There is also improved (but incomplete) stackless support and improved (but
still incomplete) NumPy support.
