Feature changed by: Di Pe (dipe) Feature #311176, revision 4 Title: add pypy - a faster python implementation openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Di Pe (dipe) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: pypy is (almost) fully compatible to python 2.5 but it can execute your unmodified Python code 5-15 times faster than the standard cPython.
