The quest to translate PyPy
Posted by thepythonista on 3 June 2008
I’ve been playing around a little with PyPy, the reimplementation of Python in Python, recently. Unfortunately, my laptop isn’t beefy enough to translate the Python-based interpreter to C. I guess it’ll have to wait until after I get another gig or two of RAM (it reportedly takes about a gig just to compile the interpreter to C code which gcc can then compile, to get a native Python interpreter).
You may have foiled me this time, PyPy, but I’ll be back!
