I've attached a slightly modified version of your script that uses timeit to measure the time, and takes an argument to specify the number of repeats... This shows that PyPy gets faster as the JIT kicks in: python2.7 1000 0.33 python2.7 10000 0.33 python3.2 1000 0.41 python3.2 10000 0.40 pypy 1000 1.29 pypy 10000 0.22 pypy 100000 0.08 Hope that helps David _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
