Indeed, it's pretty cool: one of latest argument to not migrate to Python 3 is almost ready to fall.

Maybe in one moment (2018 ?), it might be interesting that to have a leaflet with the list of bias about Python 3 migration (No library support, slower...) to help to change minds about that ? Or maybe it already exist ?

Hi,

FYI CPython 3.7 is now faster than CPython 2.7 on most benchmarks. It would be interesting to investigate why 12 benchmarks are still slower to check if we missed something obvious.

Comparison, ignoring differences smaller than 10%:
