I wouldn't see PyPy this way. However, we do have a pypy-c version that works on Maemo and is more efficient for larger amounts of user objects. We also have ideas how to reduce RSS size after interpreter startup, mostly tied to pypy-c so far, though. In principle it's also possible to translate RPython to C or JVM and avoid interpretation alltogether. RPython is >50 times faster than CPython but less convenient to work with than regular Python so only makes sense to consider for special purposes. And is probably best learned in collaboration with developers who know how to work with it and are willing or paid to help. cheers, holger -- Metaprogramming, Python, Testing: http://tetamap.wordpress.com Python, PyPy, pytest contracting: http://merlinux.eu _______________________________________________ pypy-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
