Pyjion, a drop-in JIT compiler for Python 3.10 is now v1.0
Looks like it was started at Microsoft, the tonybaloney/Pyjion was forked from microsoft/Pyjion.
-
Why Python 4.0 might never arrive, according to its creator
Pyjion is a Microsoft project that adds a JIT leveraging CoreCLR.

Pyston v2.2: faster and open source
https://github.com/microsoft/Pyjion was a really nice attempt to marry CPython with JIT in a rather generic way, but it was abandoned quickly.

Cinder: Instagram's performance oriented fork of CPython
There are articles like https://instagram-engineering.com/dismissing-python-garbage-... which seem to confirm some problems. One of the people involved with this Cinder project was an original author of https://github.com/microsoft/Pyjion (it's now being revamped by a new dev.) Dino had deep .NET/CLR implementation experience and had been the lead for IronPython which I think spawned the interest in perf improvements through Cinder. I hope this effort is more successful for him.

SIMD in Pure Python
This is a nice exercise!
There is also a very different “write SIMD assembly in Python” approach available through the PeachPy library, one of the least known gems between Python and HPC worlds: https://github.com/Maratyszcza/PeachPy
This is what a dot-product would look like in PeachPy: https://unum-cloud.github.io/usearch/python/index.html#id4
PS: Cppyy and Numba are also fun to use in such projects :)

Hey guys, have any of you tried creating your own language using Python? I'm interested in giving it a shot and was wondering if anyone has any tips or resources to recommend. Thanks in advance!
It's not super maintained but you might enjoy building something with ppci, Pure Python Compiler Infrastructure. It has some front-ends and some back-ends. There's also PeachPy for an assembler. People like using Lark for parsing, I hear.
