Good job on dispelling the myth of "compiler = fast". I hope SPython will be able to transfer some of its ideas to CPython with time.


You would think Luajit would have convinced people by now. But most people still think you need a static language and an AOT compiler for performance.


Also Smalltalk (Pharo, Squeak, Cincom, Dolphin), Common Lisp (SBCL, Clozure, Allegro, LispWorks), Self,....

But yeah.


Where was this dispelled?
