    So Claude can convert python code bases to rust or golang, and give you an easy 10x speed boost. Much better than waiting for Python performance to improve

      For a lot of scripts (think replacement to bash scripts - perhaps even one-offs), Python will save time over rust compilation times.

        Golang it is then! I'm really enjoying the fast compile time compared to C++...

    35 years on since the first public Python release and there's still so much room for improvement in its performance. These tests by Miguel are a useful quick check on that progress in 3.15 even if as he admits it's impossible to get "an objective and universal measure of the performance of a programming language".

    Not as fast as https://github.com/shedskin/shedskin
