cfbolz changed the topic of #pypy to: PyPy, the flexible snake (IRC logs: https://quodlibet.duckdns.org/irc/pypy/latest.log.html#irc-end ) | use cffi for calling C | if a pep adds a mere 25-30 [C-API] functions or so, it's a drop in the ocean (cough) - Armin
<mattip>
cfbolz: about full 3.8: makes sense. maybe we should make a py3.8-alpha branch off py3.7 and work on that for the walrus operator and fstring debugging
<mattip>
and eventually merge that into py3.8
<cfbolz>
Yep
<mattip>
about pickle: it would be nice to have a benchmark to relate to
<mattip>
even if the 'jit-off' one makes no sense
isidentical has joined #pypy
<mattip>
fwiw, jit-off is 150x slower than cpython, jitted is 3.5x slower
<cfbolz>
mattip: nice
<mattip>
pickled_dict is much worse: 10x slower for the jit

hi everybody, happy new year
<cfbolz>
Happy new year Armin!
<cfbolz>
arigato: if you are ever in a bytecode generating mood, the 3.8 bytecode changes are above my head
<antocuni>
happy new year everybody
<antocuni>
I miss sprints :(, hoping we will manage to have one in 2021
andi- has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
andi- has joined #pypy

mattip: I made a py3.8-with-3.7-stdlib branch for what we discussed above
<cfbolz>
so far it only has fstring-debugging merged to it, but I plan to get the walrus operator done soon, and will continue with positional only args
