hi,
sorry, this is a bit off topic i guess but in the other thread about the future of pygame + pygame-ctypes i read about speculations about the overall future of python and pypy... :)
i find the idea of pypy very fascinating but i am also confused about some details.
on their site they write:
"Rumors have it that the secret goal is being faster-than-C which is nonsense, isn't it?"
python code will run faster than c? :)
or does it mean python code will run faster than on cpython? or faster than on cpython+psyco? what performance will theoretically be possible?
...
and what about parrot? will this be interesting for python?
