On a related note, how hard is it to "freeze" the translator/compiler state of a given pypy version just before it begins to read extension modules and distribute that, it would speed up module development a lot. It would be a quick equivalent of distributing headers for a C library. d. On 14 February 2011 18:13, Maciej Fijalkowski <fijall@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi.
There is growing interest about PyPy and especially about extension modules. Apparently there are some people (like Alex) that are willing to write modules in RPython that should not go to the main tree. Since separate compilation is considered hard, how hard would it be to provide separate loading? This would mean you still compile the whole interpreter, but you can load the module from a compiled PyPy that didn't have this option on.
