Just to set the record straight, PyPy has been available on conda-forge [0] since March, and has seen close to 70,000 downloads [1] from that channel alone, in addition to the downloads from https://downloads.python.org/pypy and the other channels where it is available. This is far from CPython's wild popularity, but people are successfully using it with the scientific python stack. It is true there is more work to be done, that does not mean it is useless.
When I go looking for PyPy performance stats, everything seems to be Python 2.7. Is there anywhere that compares PyPy3 to CPython 3.6 (or whichever specific version)? Or maybe it's right there on https://speed.pypy.org/ and I just can't see it - that's definitely possible :) ChrisA
