The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Is there any reason to use Ruby 2.7 over Ruby 3.x?
For production environments, I rely on Fullstaq Ruby. It's still an MRI-based Ruby, but it has optimizations from the folks that built Phusion Passenger, a rock-solid reliable Ruby app server. Repository options are available for RHEL and Ubuntu Linux.
- Fullstaq Ruby: Ruby 3.2 & YJIT DEBs/RPMs for all
- Fullstaq Ruby now provides DEBs/RPMs for Ruby 3.1.0

Fullstaq Ruby now packages Ruby 3.0.2, 2.7.4 and 2.6.8
Sorry for this late release. We normally release new Ruby versions in one day, but this time we got delayed by the fact that Bintray — on which we hosted our DEB/RPM packages — sunsetted. So we had to [develop a new APT and YUM repository and publishing system](https://github.com/fullstaq-labs/fullstaq-ruby-server-edition/discussions/78) from scratch.

Faster CPython at PyCon, part two
It is unclear to me whether Python 3.12 will receive significant improvements. Based on the information from https://github.com/faster-cpython/benchmarking-public, it appears that there may be a 2% performance enhancement. Is this the anticipated result, or are there additional developments awaiting merger?
Initially, the "Shannon Plan" (https://github.com/markshannon/faster-cpython/blob/master/pl...) aimed for a 50% improvement with each release. Has this goal been deemed unattainable, or are there adjustments being made to the plan?

Python-based compiler achieves orders-of-magnitude speedups
Yes, that's the JIT part of the plan. Sections of code will be compiled, "at runtime". Those sections of compiled code will be tied together with interpreted code. It will be somewhere between rare to impossible to have a fully compiled program, without interpreter glue.

Does Python plan to add JIT or get rid of the GIL?
Yes, the Shannon plan, which is actively being worked on by a team headed by Guido, includes JIT work in stages 3 and 4

Python 3.11 is 25% faster than 3.10 on average
The goal with faster cpython is for small compounding improvements with each point release[0]. So in the end it should be much more than a tiny improvement.

Python 3.11 Performance Benchmarks Are Looking Fantastic
The Shannon Plan. Announced by Guido at the 2021 Python Language summit, funded by Microsoft.
Well, good news then, it's in the planning!
- Why hasn't Python compiled/JIT/AHT projects gained mainstream traction?
What are some alternatives?
When comparing server-edition and faster-cpython you can also consider the following projects:
chruby - Changes the current Ruby
cinder - Cinder is Meta's internal performance-oriented production version of CPython.
ruby-build - A tool to download, compile, and install Ruby on Unix-like systems.
pyenv-virtualenv - a pyenv plugin to manage virtualenv (a.k.a. python-virtualenv)
