Is there any reason to not use PyPy over CPython? Why is it not the standard?

What the hell are PyPy and CPython?

Fewer supported site packages.
If you don't need them, go wild.

Go back, newfag

Like what packages aren't supported?

it's a near drop-in replacement, you can also use both interpreters together with multiprocessing, allegedly pypy has significant warmup so you'd have to profile

All I need to know, to know that it's a worthless language. If you need try/catch blocks your a shitty programmer using a shitty language.

One issue is memory usage. A main reason for me to use Python over really any other interpreted language is the much lower memory usage of CPython. A newly started CPython instance usually requires less than 10 MB, whereas the same for PyPy is closer to 70 MB, and that tends to stay true over later execution as well, thanks to CPython's eager deallocation (made possible by refcounting). It's a nice thing when running lots of small programs to not have them use 200 MB each for nothing.

What do you suggest instead? C-style error handling?

Nice digits

I hope is better

Sweet get.

And python suck ass because of performance.

Go back, Python lover. Your coding bootcamp pals over at r/programminghumor miss you.

Stop shitposting, Ken Thompson

This is the best get in forever. Educational and fun. More gets should be like this.

An alternative python interpreter that doesn't work with many major python libraries
