I'm excited to announce Pyston, a Python JIT under development at
Dropbox, built on top of LLVM.  You can read more about it at the
introductory blog post
<https://tech.dropbox.com/2014/04/introducing-pyston-an-upcoming-jit-based-python-implementation/>,
or check out the code on github <https://github.com/dropbox/pyston>.

I'm a bit surprised by the approach. Why don't you simply process CPython bytecode, rather than strive to reimplement Python fully?

Also, I wonder if it's worthwhile to use a conservative GC, rather than reuse the original refcounting scheme (especially since you want to support existing extension modules).

Regards

Antoine.
