pypy speedup?

[Jun He]

Hi, 

I've written a simulator by Simpy (~7000 LOC). The problem now is that it is too slow. Sometimes it takes one week to finish. I am considering using pypy to speed it up. Before doing that, I'd like to hear your experience with Simpy + Pypy. How much speedup did you get by using pypy for Simpy?

Thanks,

Jun

Hi Jun,

if your code is Python 2 compatible, you can just invoke it with pypy
and it should work.

Usually, you get quite a performance boost, but we don't have general
numbers for how much faster any simulation will be.

Just try it out and share your findings! :)

Cheers,
Stefan

On my primary simpy project, I observe a better than 2x speedup using PyPy versus either CPython3.5 or CPython2.7. YMMV.

Sorry for the late reply. Gmail somehow marked these emails as spam.

It was easier than I thought to setup. Simpy and other packages that I use can be installed by pip install with pypy.

I observed 3x speed up :)

Thanks,

Jun
