Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : pypy Version : 1.6 Upstream Author : Armin Rigo <ar...@tunes.org> * URL : http://www.pypy.org/ * License : MIT/X Programming Lang: Python Description : PyPy is a fast, compliant alternative implementation of the Python language.
PyPy is a fast, compliant alternative implementation of the Python language. It has several advantages and distinct features: * Speed: thanks to its Just-in-Time compiler, Python programs often run faster on PyPy. * Memory usage: large, memory-hungry Python programs might end up taking less space than they do in CPython. * Compatibility: PyPy is highly compatible with existing python code. It supports ctypes and can run popular python libraries like twisted and django. * Sandboxing: PyPy provides the ability to run untrusted code in a fully secure way. * Stackless: PyPy can be configured to run in stackless mode, providing micro-threads for massive concurrency. As well as other features. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
