Re:Python 3.15's interpreter for Windows should be 15% faster on Thursday December 25, 2025 @02:58PM (#46386680)
The project was first suggested by Mark Shannon. Van Rossum inserted himself into the project. Faster CPython people have been fired by Microsoft last year.

Generally not that much has happened in 5 years, sometimes 10-15% improvements are posted that are later offset by bloat.

I think the project started in 3.10, so 3.9 is the last version to compare to. The improvements aren't that great, I don't think any other language would get so much positive feedback for so little.
