I see improvements vs 0.5.0, but no benchmarks to compare it to CPython. I assume this means it compares unfavorably.<p>They&#x27;re aiming to speed up Dropbox&#x27;s workloads, which is a different focus than PyPy, but they could be more open with how they compare.<p>Here&#x27;s PyPy&#x27;s benchmark performance page: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;speed.pypy.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;speed.pypy.org&#x2F;</a><p>Edit: Pyston has a speed page, but it&#x27;s missing too much data to make a comparison. :( <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;speed.pyston.org&#x2F;comparison&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;speed.pyston.org&#x2F;comparison&#x2F;</a>
