Does uvloop (libuv from NodeJS) work with PyPy? https://github.com/MagicStack/uvloop Can't remember where I thought I read that libuv + CPython asyncio is actually faster than node + libuv. > So is Numba, for that matter, but it's not language wide, so it's a > slightly different beast. > FWIU, TypeScript (which compiles to ECMAscript (JS)) doesn't do any real compiler optimizations with the optional type annotations either?
