ANN: Dogelog Runtime, Prolog to the Moon (2021)

I am not testing this use-case. But a related
use-case might highlight why speed did never
hurt anybody.

Lets say you program a flying drone with Python,
and the measurement is from the drone sensor
and communication systems.

Lets say you are using the idle time between
measurements for some complex planning. It
is then not true that you have anyway

to wait for the measurement.

Hope this helps!

BTW: If somebody knows another Python implementation
I am happy to test this implementation as well.
I am assuming that the standard Python python.exe

I tested amounts to CPython? Not sure. And the
GraalVM is practically the same as JPython? Not
sure either.
