Bah. My newsreader lost my reply when the WiFi connection dropped
out... attempt #2.

Were you ever able to isolate what it was that's taking up most of the
time? Either in general or in the bit that pypy has trouble with. Or is
execution time spread too widely?
It's been a while since I last focused on performance, but the profile
is still pretty flat. It's easy enough to verify (see also the URL
referenced below):
python -m cProfile -o demo.prof `which rinoh` -f restructuredtext demo.rst

(I looked at your project but it's too large, and didn't get much
further with the github benchmark, which requires me to subscribe, but
the .sh file extensions don't seem too promising to someone on Windows.)
GitHub benchmark? .sh file extensions?
You can easily run some benchmarks following the instructions here (pip
install):
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2365/rinohtype-much-slower-on-pypy3
As I commented on that issue, I have been able to run the benchmarks
using PyPy3 5.7.1 beta, which is now significantly faster than CPython.
That's very promising!
Your program seems to be to do with typesetting. Is it possible to at
least least quantity the work that is being done in terms of total
bytes (and total files) of input, and bytes of output? That might
enable comparisons with other systems executing similar tasks, to see
if the Python version is taking unreasonably long.
The Sphinx benchmark's source reStructuredText files add up to 584 KB.
The output PDF file is almost 3 MB (includes fonts and images). Note
that the input document is parsed into a document tree where each
paragraph is represented by an object of the Paragraph class,
containing StyledText objects and so on. The total memory used is about
1 GB!
LaTeX is orders of magnitude faster, but requires multiple passes. It's
memory usage is probably much less since it works stream-based.
Best regards,
Brecht
