I think you misunderstand Holger. Making Python faster is _a_ goal with Pypy, but it is not _the_ goal. The most important goals, as I see it are to produce something that is flexible and which has a clear implementation. However, this becomes an academic exercise if we produce something that is slower than competing implementations of Python. We want to build something that produces actual benefits in real world applications.
