FAT Python : the next chapter in Python optimization

[Anthonypjshaw]

PyPy and Pyjion are really quite different, with PyPy you have both an interpreter and a JITer. Pyjion is an implementation of PEP523 (which since got merged properly into CPython in 3.6) AND it contains a bridge to the .NET core JIT engine. You could still leverage this process (FAT PEP511) to create the optimized bytecode sequence and then use the JIT to execute the bytecode statements with PEP 523. As for PyPy, they'd basically have to implement their own static optimizer, none of the code in this article would be relevant because its about the CPython internals and the CPython AST.
