Wrong. The benchmarks provide a s

I have seen that when Python+Psyco are too much slow, D language is a
good sweet half point between Python and C++ :-) Fast as C++ and with a
simpler syntax and semantics (Pyrex isn't bad, but D gives high-level
things

And for selecting a language for which you might need to implement
primitives in C :-)

Alioth is a great site for selecting the language in which to implement
primitives. Usually it's C.
Two of the alioth benchmarks, Partial-sums and Spectral-norm, could be
done using Numarray, or would be done with Numarray if most of the
program was in Python and there was a need to implement a si
The The Computer Language Shootout has just published results for
Python 2.5 and Psyco 1.5.2. Comparing the old (Python 2.4) Gentoo
Pentium 4 results (now not visible anymore) with the new results, I
have seen that all the tests with Python 2.5 are faster than the ones
with Python 2.4 (some results
