python - Any big projects using Pypy? -
i have large heterogeneous python codebase uses django front-end. codebase deployed alongside several servers beginning show strain , we're looking ways speed things while re-architect codebase, , keep new code running fast.
we're looking @ pypy seems bit iffy. has many limitations , requires refactoring lot of code (can't concatenate strings "+"?).
does have experience it? there large scale websites using it?
migration cpython pypy last thing should consider when thinking web site performance (after architecture, database, caching, distributed queues, etc.). , if absolutely need code-level optimizations (as shown thorough profiling), consider going straight c/c++ ultimate speed.
pypy mostly compatible cpython on language , standard library level, it's incompatible many cpython c extensions (and compatible ones may work slower). if site pure python , has proper test coverage, can check if works pypy , if it's considerably faster or not. if don't have tests, things getting risky. if use c extensions, you'll face issues , it's more trouble it's worth.
