  • Python Success Stories

    ...Python We are very happy with the development velocity and runtime performance that we're getting with Python. Building our application atop Twisted imposed a bit of a learning curve, but well worth it since it enables ProjectPipe to be a true multi-protocol application, speaking HTTP and XMPP/Jabber. If Python had a Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler, then we would not have had occasional misgivings while worrying about hitting performance snags. Java's JIT provides much better performance than Python...

  • What's new in Python 1.5 and beyond

    ...PYTHONHOME (see the usage message, e.g. try python -h). In most situations, the interpreter can be installed at an arbitrary location without having to recompile. The build process now builds a single library (libpython1.5.a) which contains everything except for the main() entry point. This makes life much easier for applications that embed Python. There is much better support for embedding, including threads, multiple interpreters(!), uninitialization, and access to the global interpreter loc...
