[pypy-dev] PyPy is much slower than CPython example / question

[Armin Rigo]

Hi Alex,

Before attacking the problem with the JIT, we should understand better
why PyPy is 4-8 times slower than CPython.  Normally you'd expect the
factor to be at most 2.  I suppose the answer is that our
itertools.repeat() is bad for some reason.


A bientôt,

Armin.
