   Sep 23, 2013 · They claim it is 6.3 times faster than the CPython interpreter on their site. Whenever we talk about dynamic languages like Python, speed is one of the top issues. To solve this, they say PyPy is 6.3 times faster. The second issue is parallelism, the infamous Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). For this, PyPy says it can give GIL-less Python.

   The proper fix is. The same problem---not closing your files---can also show up if your program opens a large number of files without closing them explicitly. In that case, you can easily hit the system limit on the number of file descriptors that are allowed to be opened at the same time. PyPy can be run with the command-line option -X track ...

   On CPython 2.6 and 2.7 it works in a bit more cases, which are not supported by PyPy so far. (If needed, it could be supported, but then it will likely work in many more case on PyPy than on CPython 2.6/2.7.) In PyPy 3, __class__ attribute assignment between heaptypes and non heaptypes.

   3 days ago · Yes, PyPy has a GIL. Removing the GIL is very hard. On top of CPython, you have two problems: (1) GC, in this case reference counting; (2) the whole Python language. For PyPy, the hard issue is (2): by that I mean issues like what occurs if a mutable object is changed from one thread and read from another concurrently.

   Mar 16, 2024 · CPython interprets bytecode, whereas PyPy uses JIT compilation to translate Python code into machine code dynamically, aiming for faster execution. Performance: PyPy often provides significant performance improvements over CPython in long-running applications due to JIT compilation. However, the performance benefit varies based on the nature of ...

   Oct 23, 2020 · “Compliant” means that PyPy is compatible with CPython, as you can use nearly all CPython syntax in PyPy. There are some compatibility differences, as mentioned here. The most powerful advantage of PyPy is its speed. PyPy is much faster than CPython; we’ll see tests later on where PyPy performs about 7 times faster.

   Does PyPy run on CPython?

   • PyPy is written in Restricted Python. It does not run on top of the CPython interpreter, as far as I know. Restricted Python is a subset of the Python language. AFAIK, the PyPy interpreter is compiled to machine code, so when installed it does not utilize a python interpreter at runtime.

   Why is PyPy not compatible with CPython?

   • A: PyPy isn't 100% compatible with CPython because it isn't simulating CPython under the hood. Some programs may still depend on CPython's unique features that are absent in PyPy such as C bindings, C implementations of Python object&methods, or the incremental nature of CPython's garbage collector.

   Does PyPy support Python 3?

   Does PyPy support C extensions?

   • PyPy, as others have been quick to mention, has tenuous support for C extensions. It has support, but typically at slower-than-Python speeds and it's iffy at best. Hence a lot of modules simply require CPython.
