At the request of several commenters, here is a test script and benchmarks that we ran on PyPy and Anaconda Python (with Numba). The results are not tuned (I am not a PyPy expert!) so we did not post them in the blog. We’d be happy to look deeper into this with the PyPy developers. While PyPy is not currently installed on Wakari, we are looking at a number of ways we can install and support the PyPy community.
