[pypy-issue] [issue1477] datetime issues in CPython vs PyPy

[Amaury Forgeot d Arc]

Amaury Forgeot d Arc <amauryfa at gmail.com> added the comment:

datetime is a C module in CPython, but a pure-Python module in PyPy.
This makes a huge difference for CProfile, which traces Python code and not C functions...

timeit yields very different results: pypy is twice faster than CPython2.7!

python -m timeit -s "import datetime; startTime=datetime.datetime.now()" "datetime.datetime.now() < (startTime + 
datetime.timedelta(minutes=2))"
